Who's RFK Jr. and Why Are LGBTQ+ Concerned?

Ever heard of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. ? He's in the news for a big job: Health and Human Services secretary. But some people are worried about his views on LGBTQ+ health care. Kennedy has made some surprising comments – like saying chemicals in water might make kids gay or trans. He also has questions about HIV and AIDS, and vaccines too. Doctors say Kennedy's ideas could hurt LGBTQ+ people's health. They want politicians to think twice before giving him this important job. Kennedy's got plans for the National Institutes of Health and the President’s Plan for Emergency AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). If he gets the job, these plans might change how HIV treatments are made. Experts say these changes could affect lots of people, not just the LGBTQ+ community. But there's hope that scientists and healthcare workers at HHS can guide Kennedy and the Trump administration to make better choices.
