Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee for health and human services secretary.

The Washington Examiner has identified 12 issues we believe will shape and influence 2025 and beyond.

Kennedy 's nomination is one of the clearest examples of a reorientation of the political parties in the U.S ..

Kennedy has become a champion of the crusade against ultra-processed foods.

The HHS nominee has also supported deregulating the sale of unpasteurized milk across state lines and removing fluoride from the water supply.

Kennedy ’s overall skepticism of the relationship between the pharmaceutical industry, major food corporations, and the federal government is likely to have substantial implications.

Public confidence in science, scientists, and public health professionals has been at record lows since COVID-19 .

Paul said he is hopeful that the incoming Trump administration, with Kennedy at the helm of public health, will turn the trend around because trust in government health recommendations “can’t get any worse”.
