Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s Calendar: Claims of Public Availability Contradicted by Unfulfilled Requests
Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. recently asserted that his calendar is "publicly available," citing it as proof of his commitment to transparency and to counter negative reports. However, the administration has not released such a calendar. STAT News has reportedly pursued Kennedy's schedule for over a year through Freedom of Information Act requests and emails, with none of these requests completed and some remaining unacknowledged by the Department of Health and Human Services.
Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. stated on Wednesday that his calendar is "publicly available," presenting this as evidence of his commitment to transparency. He made this assertion in an effort to address what he described as unfavorable reporting.
Despite Kennedy's claim, no detailed calendar outlining his meetings or how he allocates his time has been released by the administration. This has led to questions regarding the accessibility of his official schedule.
STAT News has actively sought Kennedy’s calendar for more than a year. The news organization has submitted Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests and sent emails to the press office of the Department of Health and Human Services in an attempt to obtain the information. According to STAT News, none of these requests for Kennedy’s schedule have been completed, and some have not even been acknowledged by the department.
