Survey: Most voters disapprove of RFK Jr.'s nomination after learning his views [View all]

Most Americans disapprove of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. potentially leading the Department of Health and Human Services once they hear about his positions and beliefs, according to a survey from Democratic-aligned groups Protect Our Care and Data for Progress shared first with The Hill.

When voters were asked initially if they approve or disapprove of Trump’s nomination of RFK Jr., 45 percent said they approve.

But after the respondents were informed of RFK Jr.’s past statements, their approval of his nomination dropped to 39 percent, a swing from a 3-point margin of approval to a 13-point margin of disapproval.

Disapproval among independents rose from 38 percent to 52 percent, while disapproval among Republicans increased from 16 percent to 27 percent.
