BREAKING:
The Supreme Court just delivered a massive blow to health freedom.
“This should frighten us all.”
“The system is not going to protect us.”
Here’s what happened:
A federal court quietly delivered one of the most terrifying rulings ever last year.
The Ninth Circuit Court said the government can force any medical intervention on you.
With no evidence or judicial review.
This is the backstory:
In 2021, we filed a lawsuit against the Los Angeles Unified School District over their Covid-19 vaccine mandates alongside California Educators for Medical Freedom and several individual plaintiffs.
In July 2025, the Ninth Circuit Court ruled against us.
They said that as long as authorities say a mandate is for “public health,” then the courts shouldn’t question them.
And that it didn’t matter whether or not the Covid shots actually worked.
All that matters is that authorities said they did.
So we petitioned the Supreme Court to review this egregious and unprecedented ruling.
But today, the Supreme Court officially denied our petition.
HFDF President Leslie Manookian:
“This means that the Ninth Circuit’s egregious ruling—that it doesn’t matter whether a shot stops transmission or infection, all that matters is that a state official could have believed a shot would help individual members of the public—will stand.”
“And it’s now precedent in the largest circuit in the United States.”
“But this is the most important thing for us to all take away: the system is not going to protect us.”
“It’s up to us, the people … to refuse to ever obey a mandate from authority again.”
“They’re already stirring the pot of fear about the supposed African disease … and this new one from the cruise ships.”
“This is what’s coming, folks.”
“What is going to protect us … is us as individuals standing up, linking arms with our friends and our neighbors, and saying no, we refuse to comply.”
“We will never again obey your civil liberty-violing mandates.”
“And we have to fight state by state to pass laws that protect our rights and freedoms.”
“Because the federal government’s not going to do it.”
This is a saddening setback for health freedom—but we are not giving up.
This year, we launched a coalition to outlaw medical mandates across the state legislatures.
And we’re seeing incredible progress.
In 2025, Idaho’s Medical Freedom Act outlawed almost all medical mandates.
This year, multiple state legislatures have already passed similar laws to outlaw medical mandates.
And similar laws are advancing through state committees in more states.
“While I’m incredibly saddened by this, I’m also galvanized.”
