Petition here. Excerpt:

'Every day, thousands of doctors across the country take newborn baby boys from their parents and subject them to a medically unnecessary, painful, life-altering surgery—circumcision.

Parents place their trust in their children’s doctors, and it’s the doctors’ responsibility to tell them: (1) no medical organization in the world recommends circumcision; (2) the foreskin is a normal, important body part; and (3) babies are people with rights, and no baby has consented to circumcision.'
