"The Make America Healthy Again, or MAHA, movement notched a win Thursday when the House voted to strip a pesticides provision from the farm bill. The amendment was introduced by Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, a Florida Republican who has bolstered the concerns of MAHA activists in the House. It removed language from the bill that Democrats say would have shielded pesticide companies like Bayer from health-related lawsuits." https://19thnews.org/2026/04/pesticides-farm-bill-maha-movement-democrats/ #PublicHealth #food #MAHA #toxins #FarmBill #USpol

"In addition to distilling MAHA supporters’ priorities, the poll upends popular misconceptions about who Kennedy’s supporters are. In contrast to the stereotype of a vaccine-skeptical MAHA mom touting her wellness routine on social media, men were more likely than women to self-identify as MAHA supporters. MAHA supporters tend to be wealthier than the general public. One in 5 voted for Kamala Harris in the last presidential election." https://www.politico.com/news/2026/04/06/poll-maha-beliefs-rfk-trump-00856922 #MAHA #food #toxins #USpol

"The newest evangelists of the Make America Healthy Again lifestyle aren’t muscled bros crushing reps or wellness moms posting about vaccine schedules — they’re high-school- and college-aged young women...For many of them, the path to MAHA followed a similar trajectory: chronic health problems, disappointing encounters with the medical establishment and a search for more satisfying answers." https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2026/03/27/magazine/kennedy-maha-youth-wellness-influencer.html #PublicHealth #MAHA #wellness #diet #food #chemicals #toxins #misinformation

"The Wisconsin Legislature sent a $133 million plan to combat contamination from so-called forever chemicals to Gov. Tony Evers for his approval Tuesday, promising an end to years of squabbling between the Democratic governor and Republican lawmakers over the issue." https://apnews.com/article/pfas-wisconsin-bill-senate-passage-evers-fbfe59d8cabcbab6296ec088fcb36d2a #PublicHealth #chemicals #toxins #pfas #water #wisconsin
