Today, @POTUS, joined by @FLOTUS, signed an executive order directing HHS to establish a new Women’s Health Division at @NIH to strengthen research, accelerate medical breakthroughs, and improve health outcomes for women and girls. The order also establishes a White House Women’s Health Task Force, co-chaired by @SecKennedy and @SusieWiles47, to coordinate federal efforts to advance women’s health at every stage of life—from childhood and adolescence to reproductive health, menopause, and healthy aging.

RFK Jr. says he will stop at nothing to hold institutions accountable that have harmed Americans’ health. “I didn’t come to Washington to protect institutions from uncomfortable questions.” “I came to make those institutions answer those questions.” “I intend to stay in this fight as long as I am able.” “I told people… that I would be in this fight, and that I would die with my boots on.” “That’s what I intend to do.” @childrenshd
