The Health and Human Services Department said Thursday it plans to slash 10,000 full-time employees across the nation's foremost health agencies. Why it matters: The cuts will dramatically reduce the capacity of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA),

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a Democratic presidential candidate, has proposed a significant reduction in the size of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) by cutting 10,000 jobs. This plan aims to streamline the department, which he believes has become overly bureaucratic and inefficient. Kennedy's proposal includes eliminating what he describes as "redundant" and "ineffective" programs, with the goal of reducing administrative costs and redirecting funds towards direct health services. He argues that this downsizing would not only save taxpayer money but also improve the effectiveness of health services by focusing on essential functions. Critics, however, express concerns about potential negative impacts on public health initiatives and the welfare of HHS employees.
