WASHINGTON – The following statement is from Ken Cook, president and co-founder of the Environmental Working Group:
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is the latest revenge-prank nomination to emerge from the patio of Mar-a-Lago. Unfortunately, this joke will be at the expense of all Americans, not just those who voted for Donald Trump. Far from being funny, the decision to make Bobby Kennedy America’s top health official could well be deadly.
President-elect Trump has selected someone guaranteed to seriously erode the credibility of the federal government with the medical and public health communities.
