The most powerful opponents of Donald Trump's nomination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Health and Human Services Secretary may not be public health advocates or vaccine proponents. It might very well be anti-abortion forces, who worry about Kennedy's ever-shifting but essentially pro-choice views.
Students for Life president Kristi Hamrick praised Severino to Politico, calling him 'someone who knows just how corrupt and biased the agency is and who has ideas to fix it.' They trust Severino 'to make sure all of the Biden-era programs expanding access to abortion are rolled back.'
During Severino's prior HHS service, The Atlantic termed him 'the man behind Trump's religious-freedom agenda for health care.' He proposed to bring back some of the agency changes Trump made that limit access to abortion and reproductive health services.
