Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is making significant changes to his professional endeavors as he pursues a leadership role within the nation's top health agency under President Donald Trump. According to government ethics documents released on Wednesday, Kennedy has earned approximately $10 million in income over the past year from various sources, including speaking fees, leading an anti-vaccine nonprofit, and legal fees.
As part of his nomination process, Kennedy has pledged to cease collecting payments on certain vaccine lawsuits involving the U.S. government. He has a background as a lawyer specializing in lawsuits related to environmental and vaccine injury claims against major corporations, but has committed to refraining from receiving payment for claims against the U.S. under the National Vaccine Injury Compensation program.
