RFK Jr.’s ‘Make America Healthy Again’ report worries farmers, Republicans ahead of release
May 21, 2025
A much-anticipated White House report about childhood diseases has provoked a tug-of-war that’s pitted farmers and some prominent Republican lawmakers against health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his politically ambiguous “Make America Healthy Again” movement ahead of its release. Trump promised a sweeping review in within 100 days that would analyze the ramifications of U.S. lifestyles and food ingredients. The report, led by a so-called “MAHA Commission,” is expected to be released Thursday. Farmers and Republicans are nervous about what the report might say about glyphosate, the ingredient commonly used in pesticides sprayed on crops.
