Senator Marshall Applauds Release of MAHA Strategy Report
Washington – On Tuesday, U.S. Senator Roger Marshall, M.D. (R-Kansas), released a statement applauding Health and Human Services Secretary (HHS) Robert F. Kennedy Jr, Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) Strategy Report, which focused on the health of our children.
“For years, families, teachers, and doctors have been sounding the alarm that American children are getting sicker, faster. Finally, we have an administration that is willing to battle the chronic disease epidemic that’s besetting our children and understand the root causes,” said Senator Marshall. “Today’s MAHA report is not drastic – it’s common sense and sets our children up for the healthy future they deserve.”
As the founding member and Chairman of the MAHA Caucus, Senator Marshall has introduced legislation and pushed for a stronger focus on holistic health approaches, treating food as medicine, improving soil health, and looking beyond pharmaceutical drugs and vaccines to treat the root causes of America’s chronic health issue epidemic.
