NOTE on Candidate Dist 89: This scorecard will be a bit of a surprise after the situation with DJ leaving and our call to action to choose an alternative candidate to Stidham because he was Huffman’s choice. That said, OAMF has a history of giving candidates a CHANCE when they express an interest in medical freedom, and are willing to commit to standing with and voting for our legislation. We have been informed that Candidates have been told by the Speaker’s team NOT to survey with OAMF, so Caleb taking this risk shows an effort on his part. We hope Stidham will prove himself to be an ally to our cause, and like all our candidates and incumbents, we will hold him accountable.

It’s with great sadness that we will say goodbye to our friend and medical freedom champion Representative DJ Swearingen, on October 4, 2026. We are so thankful for all he has done for medical freedom and for his genuine heart for the people. We wish him well in his endeavors working on the fraud task force under President Trump. ———————————— “State Rep. D.J. Swearingen, R-Huron, announced Thursday that he’s taken a new job as an attorney in an anti-fraud unit in the U.S. Department of Justice.” "It has been the professional privilege of a lifetime to represent the people of the 89th House District," Swearingen said. "I will be forever grateful to them for trusting me to advocate for their interests over the last seven years.” "It is bittersweet for me, but I will fondly remember the many great things that we have accomplished together to make our community a great place to live, work, and raise a family,” he added.” -Sandusky Register

Herd immunity to measles is a scientific fairytale. EXCLUDING HEALTHY, unvaccinated children from school IS DISCRIMINATION, NOT SCIENCE.

Good ideas don’t require force. So why do vaccine manufacturers need to spend so much much money to try to FORCE parents to vaccinate? Is it because they don’t have sufficient science to prove their products are actually “safe & effective”? Sounds like a vaccine marketing problem, not a vaccine exemption problem. ———————————— “Pfizer paid $500,000 to two nonprofits that later signed a letter urging Massachusetts lawmakers to eliminate the state’s religious exemption from mandatory childhood school vaccinations, according to the company’s own public grant disclosures and a legislative letter reviewed by The Defender.” “The drugmaker’s “US Medical, Scientific, Patient and Civic Organization Funding Report” for fiscal year 2024, posted on Pfizer’s transparency website, lists a $400,000 payment to the American Society for Meningitis Prevention (ASMP) for “Policy Efforts for comprehensive Meningococcal Meningitis Vaccination.” “The same report lists a $100,000 payment to the March of Dimes Foundation in 2024, categorized as a “Vaccine Policy Campaign Maternal Immunization.” “More than a year later, both organizations’ names appear among roughly two dozen signatories on a June 1 letter to the Massachusetts House Committee on Ways and Means urging lawmakers to advance House Bill 2554 (H.2554).” “The bill would “remove the non-medical exemption from required school vaccines and enhance data collection and sharing to better track immunization rates,” according to the letter.” “Massachusetts currently allows parents to opt their children out of school vaccination requirements on religious grounds. The bill would eliminate that option, leaving only medical exemptions.”
