  • President-elect Donald Trump and his nominee to run the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., do not drink and have been outspoken about the dangers of alcohol.

The article from Reuters discusses the potential resistance to implementing alcohol cancer risk warnings in the U.S., particularly if Donald Trump were to win the 2024 presidential election. It highlights that during Trump's previous term, his administration rolled back several public health measures, including those related to alcohol labeling. The article mentions that the current push for mandatory warning labels on alcohol, which would inform consumers about the increased risk of cancer from alcohol consumption, might face significant opposition from Trump, who has historically favored deregulation and has personal ties to the alcohol industry through his ownership of Trump Winery. Furthermore, the piece notes that while there is growing scientific consensus on the link between alcohol and cancer, political and industry resistance could hinder the adoption of such labels, especially under a Trump administration known for its business-friendly policies.
