RFK Jr. joins Trump administration raising health protection concerns

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has joined the Trump administration, raising concerns about his alignment with policies that may weaken health protections. His previous campaign focused on reforming healthcare and environmental safety, advocating for transparency and accountability. Kennedy's support for Project 2025, which aims to reduce the Environmental Protection Agency's authority, could undermine regulations that ensure clean air and water. This initiative threatens to dismantle key protections established under the Clean Air Act and Clean Water Act. Critics argue that Kennedy's position contradicts his public health advocacy. They emphasize that weakening these regulations could expose Americans, especially children, to increased health risks from pollution and contaminated water.
