The powerful grassroots group Hunter Nation – the leading conservative hunting advocacy organization in the country, is activating its members in Louisiana and deploying over 250,000 text messages in a last minute blitz to urge their Second Amendment supporters to call Sen. Bill Cassidy, R-La, and press him to advance Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s nomination to be the next Secretary of Health and Human Services.
The Senate Finance Committee is expected to vote on Tuesday in Washington, and Cassidy’s vote could determine whether or not RFK Jr.’s nomination goes to the Senate floor for a full vote or dies in committee.
The GOP Louisiana Senator has admitted that he is “struggling” with Kennedy’s nomination, and he’s taken issue with some of RFK Jr.’s concerns with certain vaccinations. And while Cassidy – a physician – is supportive of all vaccinations – one thing remains clear: vaccinated Americans are getting sicker by the year and American children are dying at rates far higher than children in other wealthy, developed countries.
Late Monday, Hunter Nation posted videos on their website and on social media of Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry and U.S. Rep. Clay Higgins calling on hunters and the people of Louisiana “to do the right thing!”
“One of our own, Senator Bill Cassidy, is holding up RFK Jr. ‘s nomination. That means President Trump’s plan to put America first is in danger of failing. We need every Louisiana hunter and patriot to take action—call Senator Cassidy today and tell him to support RFK Jr. for Secretary of Health and Human Services!,” urged Gov. Landry.
“We the people of Louisiana need to reach out and encourage Senator Bill Cassidy to do the right thing by supporting RFK Jr., President Trump’s choice to run Health and Human Services!,” implored Rep. Higgins.
Keith Mark – founder of Hunter Nation, thanked the governor and congressman and reiterated his organization’s support for Kennedy, saying
“Governor Jeff Landry is a true champion for hunters and 2nd Amendment advocates. Congressman Higgins is a Freedom warrior as well! Hunter Nation is honored to work with them to make sure President Trump’s agenda stays on track. Hunter Nation will always stand with the American Hunter, and today, that means making sure Senator Cassidy hears our message loud and clear.”
Late Monday night, the U.S. Senate phone system was down because of a high volume of phone calls to Senate offices urging Members of Congress to support RFK Jr., Kash Patel and Tulsi Gabbard. And according to Nick Sortor, the Senate office buildings were receiving about “600 calls per minute” from people all over the country – proving yet again that the grassroots have been activated.
Hunter Nation is one of the nation’s leading grassroots hunting advocacy organizations, fighting to protect Traditional American values, including God, Family, Country, and the U.S. Constitution. With millions of hunters across the country, the organization is committed to ensuring that the voices of America’s sportsmen and women are heard at every level of government.
