RFK Jr.’s ‘MAHA’ commission meets for the first time — behind closed doors
The MAHA Commission is made up of agency heads, domestic policy advisers and RFK Jr. advisers, including "MAHA moms," and will study childhood chronic disease.
An array of federal government officials and “Make America Healthy Again” moms met Tuesday in what was the first convening of a new commission led by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
The meeting, held in Washington on Tuesday afternoon, was not made public or announced before it occurred. It marked the start of a monthslong effort, birthed by President Donald Trump’s pen on Feb. 13, which aims to identify and then solve the nation’s chronic ills. The meeting was first reported by the New York Times. STAT independently verified that it took place.
