RFK Jr. plans to direct CDC to stop recommending fluoride in water
Fox News
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he plans to direct the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to stop recommending adding fluoride to drinking water.
The EPA announced Monday that it is reviewing new science on the potential health risks of fluoride in drinking water, as the agency has the authority to set maximum levels of fluoride in public water systems. Greg Wehner is a breaking news reporter for Fox News Digital.
While Kennedy does not have the authority to tell communities to stop adding fluoride to water systems, he can direct the CDC to stop recommending it, while also working with the EPA to set allowable levels. Story tips and ideas can be sent to Greg.Wehner@Fox.com and on Twitter @GregWehner.
