Colorado’s Gov. Jared Polis (D) mentioned he was “excited” by Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s nomination for the Secretary of Well being and Human Providers.
“I’m excited by the news that the President-Elect will appoint @RobertKennedyJr to @HHSGov. He helped us defeat vaccine mandates in Colorado in 2019 and will help make America healthy again by shaking up HHS and FDA,” Polis wrote in a put up on X.
He mentioned he hopes Kennedy doesn’t enact any vaccine bans though it’s a coverage measure he’s strongly advocated for by means of his anti-vaccine group, Kids’s Well being Protection.
“I hope he leans into personal choice on vaccines rather than bans (which I think are terrible, just like mandates) but what I’m most optimistic about is taking on big pharma and the corporate ag oligopoly to improve our health,” Polis acknowledged.
The Colorado governor then offered reasoning for his pleasure which outlined hopes for a lower within the worth of pharmaceuticals, eliminating the diet division on the Meals and Drug Administration which does “more harm than good” along with ending pesticide-intensive agriculture.
“He will face strong special interest opposition on these, but I look forward to partnering with him to truly make America healthy again and I hope that we can finally make progress on these important issues,” Polis concluded.
Kennedy notably suspended his presidential marketing campaign to endorse President-elect Trump’s second White Home bid in August. It was beforehand rumored that he would maintain a task throughout the U.S. Division of Agriculture earlier than his Thursday nomination to guide the Division of Well being and Human Providers.
