US Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. joined West Virginia's governor, Patrick Morrisey, on Friday in declaring the latest front in their war on unhealthy foods.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a Democratic presidential candidate, has set his sights on soda companies as part of his health agenda, aiming to address what he perceives as corporate influences on public health. During a campaign event in New York City, Kennedy criticized the soda industry for contributing to health issues like obesity and diabetes through the promotion of sugary drinks. He advocates for policies that would limit the marketing of these beverages, particularly to children, and impose stricter regulations on the industry. Kennedy's approach includes promoting healthier alternatives and using his platform to raise awareness about the detrimental effects of excessive sugar consumption, aligning with his broader campaign themes of environmental justice and corporate accountability.
