After finishing 10,000 jobs from the Department of Health and Human Services this week, Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told ABC News that some programs would soon be reinstated because they were cut by mistake.
Kennedy’s comments were in response to a question about a branch in the centers for the control and prevention of diseases that monitor lead levels among children and manages prevention throughout the country. The program was destroyed on Tuesday.
“There were some programs that were cut that are being restored, and I think that is one,” said Kennedy.
Kennedy said other HHS programs would also be restored.
