Abstract

The Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement is now national policy with Trump establishing the MAHA Commission and Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. as the Secretary of the Department of Health & Human Services (HHS).

Americans are universally concerned about their health, but well-financed and entrenched interests are thwarting MAHA. Big Pharma spends $400 million a year on lobbying and contributes $90 million each election cycle. Big food spends $130 million a year on lobbying and contributes $42.5 million each election cycle.
