Colorado Governor Jared Polis Unexpectedly Endorses Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for Trump's HHS Secretary
Nov 14, 2024, 09:40 PM
Jared Polis, the Democratic Governor of Colorado, has announced his support for Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Secretary of Health and Human Services. Polis expressed his excitement about the nomination, which is part of President-elect Donald Trump's administration. This endorsement is notable given Polis's Democratic affiliation and Kennedy's previous efforts in defeating vaccine mandates in Colorado in 2019. The support from a prominent Democrat could influence Senate Democrats during Kennedy's confirmation process. This unexpected endorsement also positions Polis as a moderate Dem option for 2028.
