States take over where Trump puts public health at risk by supporting RFK Jr. - The Briefing w/Jen Psaki - MSNBC



States that value science and data and good health are not waiting around for the Trump administration to come to its senses as long as Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is the Health and Human Services Secretary, so they're taking the responsibility on themselves.

Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey talks with Jen Psaki about how she is securing vaccine access for her state, and why states will have to do more on their own in the absence of federal leadership. - Aired on 09/04/2025.

economy of scale indicates centralization
