In a bold move, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the newly appointed Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), has unveiled plans for a comprehensive restructuring of health agencies. This initiative is in response to President Trump's Executive Order on implementing the "Department of Government Efficiency" Workforce Optimization Initiative.
The restructuring plan includes two major actions, with the most significant being the elimination of 10,000 employee positions across various departments. This initiative aims to streamline operations and enhance the efficiency of health agencies under Kennedy's leadership.
