Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

I believe climate change is existential. My job is to make Americans healthy again.

They are calling for fixing the food system, doing something to coordinate and address diet-related chronic diseases, stopping corporate power, eliminating conflicts of interest between industry and government, getting toxic chemicals out…

I know people, including members of my family, who've had a much worse time getting off of SSRIs than they have getting off of heroin.

We will reverse the chronic disease epidemic and put the nation back on the road to good health.

We will remove financial conflicts of interest from our agencies. We will create an honest, unbiased, gold standard science at HHS, accountable to the president, to Congress, and to the American people.

Should I be so privileged as to be confirmed, we will make sure our tax dollars support healthy foods. We will scrutinize the chemical additives in our food supply.

In some categories, there are entire departments, like the nutrition department at the FDA that are – that have to go, that are not doing their job, they're not protecting our kids.

We want to do a number of things but not take away choice from people. The one place that I would say that we really need to change policies is food stamps and school lunches. We shouldn't be subsidizing people to eat poison.

That's what I'm saying. If you wanna eat a Big Mac, you ought to, but McDonald's ought to be incentivized to use beef tallow fat when it's cooking its Big Macs so that they're good for people, rather than using seed oils or some other…

We shouldn't be subsidizing people to eat poison.

I believe in freedom of choice. If you wanna eat Twinkies, you ought to be able to eat 'em...

If you wanna eat a Big Mac, you ought to, but McDonald's ought to be incentivized to use beef tallow fat...

I intend to devote the appropriate resources to preventing pandemics. That’s essential for my job.

If you've been involved in good science, you've got nothing to worry about. If you care about public health, you've got nothing to worry about.

All of my kids are vaccinated, and I believe vaccines have a critical role in health care.

Americans of all ages are becoming sicker, beset by illnesses that our medical system is not addressing effectively.

he will be 'uniquely positioned' to revive trust in those public health agencies.

Things at the agency had gone 'horribly wrong.'

We want to do the same thing with the institutions that are stealing the health our children.

I believe that vaccines play a critical role in health care.

Trump has asked him to 'study the safety of mifepristone.'

Americans' overall health is in a grievous condition

make America healthy again

I promised President Trump that if confirmed I will do everything in my power to put the health of Americans back on track.

Should I be so privileged as to be confirmed, we will make sure our tax dollars support healthy foods.
