WASHINGTON (Reuters) -U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said on Tuesday that the MAHA Commission report President Donald Trump tasked him with producing would come out on Thursday.
Trump signed an executive order to establish a commission to "Make America Healthy Again," during Kennedy's swearing in ceremony on February 13, and tasked it with investigating chronic illness and delivering an action plan to fight childhood diseases, starting with a report due within 100 days.
"You'll see the report. It's going to be released on Thursday. Everybody will see the report," Kennedy told a Senate subcommittee hearing in response to questions about the contents of the report and its impact on agriculture.
Kennedy is appearing before the U.S. Senate Appropriations Committee's Subcommittee on Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies to discuss his department's portion of Trump's budget request for the 2026 fiscal year.
He faced questions from both Republican and Democratic Senators over programs he cut and mass layoffs at federal health agencies, as well as an $18 billion cut to National Institutes of Health funding and a $3.6 billion cut to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention funding in Trump's budget proposal.
