+Aaron Siri FOIA on behalf of ICAN - August 12, 2021 Siri | Gilmstad letter ((https://www.icandecide.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/IR0543-White-House-OMB-Email-communications-with-Facebook-YouTube.pdf))
+=== Update Feb 14, 2022 ===
+On August 12, 2021, ICAN, through its attorneys, submitted a Freedom of Information Act request for communications between [[White House]] staff and [[Facebook]], [[Google]], and [[YouTube]].  In response to this request, ICAN received a June 15, 2021 email sent by Facebook’s then-Public Policy Manager, [[Nkechi “Payton” Iheme]], to several White House employees.
+In it, Iheme announces a new initiative, the “[[Alliance for Advancing Health Care]],” between Facebook and several major companies and organizations, including [[Merck]], the [[Vaccine Confidence Project]], the [[Sabin Vaccine Institute]], and the [[CDC Foundation]].  Significantly, one of the CDC Foundation’s corporate partners is [[Pfizer]].
+In the email, Iheme explains that the Alliance is “focused on advancing public **understanding of how social media and behavioral sciences can be leveraged** to improve the health of communities around the world” and states that its first project is to “provide grants to researchers and organizations for projects that explore how to use social media and digital platforms to build confidence in and **drive uptake of vaccines**.”  Facebook announced this new initiative on June 9, 2021.

+The conflict of interest is astonishing.  This email shows without a doubt that, through the [[CDC Foundation]]((https://web.archive.org/web/20220103060220/https://www.cdcfoundation.org/partner-list/corporations)) created “to support the [CDC’s] work,” the federal government, which is in charge of ensuring the safety of vaccines, has teamed up with Big Pharma and Big Tech to push a liability-free product on the world, while attempting to stomp out anyone who questions this arrangement.
