Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Commits to Restoring Key Pro-Life Policies
When President-Elect Donald Trump nominated Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as HHS Secretary, tapping him to an important post that makes significant health care policies related to abortion and pro-life issues, pro-life Americans were concerned about his stance on abortion.
But Kennedy assured senators in multiple meetings on Capitol Hill today that he will ensure President Trump restores a host of pro-life policies that will save babies from abortions.
In a post on X, pro-life Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri detailed the pro-life policies Kennedy assured him would be back in place after Trump is inaugurated as president.
“Today I got to sit down with @RobertKennedyJr – we had a substantive discussion about American healthcare & his plans to take on Big Pharma. We also had a good discussion, at length, about prolife policies at HHS,” Hawley said.

“He committed to me to reinstate President Trump’s prolife policies at HHS. That includes reinstating the Mexico City policy & ending taxpayer funding for abortions domestically,” Hawley explained. “He supports reinstating the bar on Title X funds going to organizations that promote abortion.”
“He pledged to reverse the Biden Admin’s Section 1557 rule and also said all of his deputies at HHS would be prolife. He told me he believes there are far too many abortions in the US and that we cannot be the moral leader of the free world with abortion rates so high,” Hawley added. “RFK also pledged to reinstate conscience protections for healthcare providers.”
Those are some of the key pro-life policies an incoming administration would be expected to restore after Joe Biden and Kamala Harris took them all down to make way for their radical pro-abortion agenda.
Kennedy Jr. had been running against Trump for president but endorsed Trump after he suspended his campaign. During his campaign, Kennedy ran on a platform of reforming the health care bureaucracy, especially in light of failures associated with COVID.
The big problem pro-life Americans had with Kennedy is that he supports abortion and repeatedly said he supports no limits on abortion. Earlier this year, RFK Jr. gave an interview in which he confirmed he supports abortions up to birth. Kennedy will need to set those views aside to ensure that HHS enacts all of the pro-life policies that it can to protect babies from abortion.
