This is disappointing. RFK been taking Ls this week.
No doubt lobbyists have been dumping millions of $$$$$ against Kennedy's efforts.
Yep...that was my first thought
My daughter follows Kennedys efforts almost daily…, then sets new rules on what my wife and I can feed her children.
At first I thought it was a bit extreme…..but after making my own investigations…..realize Kennedy is right far more often than wrong.
So maybe that will be Kennedy's real legacy .
In that he got almost everyone far more concerned about exactly what they are consuming.
RFK seems like kind of a kook on some things...but I think he's definitely on the right track with trying to put pressure on companies getting rid of many of the additives they use.

Yet, now he is for Roundup.
outlawing Roundup from ag would crater the ag industry. So much of the industry is predicated on its use....equipment, seed varieties, tillage practices, etc.....
Not saying we could not adjust to a Roundup-free world. Saying that there would need to be a years-long transition plan to keep food prices from soaring due to short supply.
There are steps before outlawing. He is taking the deregulations too far. Deregulating business manufacturing finaces is one thing. Loosening environmental regulations, is a slippery slope. Cancer clusters are a sad sight and heartbreaking to see. Ag chemicals and water supplies are a real issue.
I agree with you on transitioning, it needs to be done right. Not just outlaw. Funny, I was excited about RFK on the food and health stuff, not the medical. He is going tough on medical and backing off food and health!
