While speaking at the Make America Healthy Again Summit on Wednesday, Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. described Vance as being “kind of a golden child of Appalachia.” Kennedy added that Vance attended Ohio State and Yale University, and is a best-selling author, among his other accomplishments. During the discussion, Vance pointed out that while people living in Appalachian America get [angry] off by jobs moving overseas, and other countries being prioritized, they also get [angry] off when their loved ones don’t live as long.
Kennedy stated that Vance’s accomplishments are also a “tragic reminder of the lost potential of almost everybody else” in Appalachia, pointing out that Appalachian America has the “worst health of any region in the country,” the highest rates of addiction, obesity, alcoholism, and suicide, among other issues.
