A recent Quinnipiac University poll shows that a majority of Americans disapprove of Kennedy’s performance as the U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services.
While U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. may be trying to “Make America Healthy Again,” it turns out plenty of Americans are already sick of him. A new poll finds that only one-third of people actually approve of how RFK Jr. is handling his job.
The findings come from the most recent Quinnipiac University poll released this month, which surveyed around 1,200 registered voters across the country. Exactly 33% of respondents said they currently approved of Kennedy’s stint as HHS secretary, while 54% disapproved. The numbers are a noticeable drop from a similar poll conducted earlier this year, prior to the internal collapse of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention set off by RFK Jr.’s antivaccine agenda.RFK’s waning popularity
Kennedy has never enjoyed immense popularity among Americans, but it certainly looks like he’s lost more ground as of late.
In both a March and June poll from Quinnipiac, RFK Jr. had a 38% approval rating, though a slightly higher disapproval rating (53%) in June. Other recent polls have highlighted RFK Jr.’s flagging perception among Americans, too, such as a -Ipsos poll this September that documented a 42% approval rating.
