Hospitals should heal people—and that includes the food they serve. Patients deserve meals made with real, nutritious ingredients that help them recover, not highly processed foods that fuel chronic disease. That's why Dr. Oz CMS and I are launching the Make Hospital Food Healthier Pledge. Today, we're calling on hospitals across America to join us and commit to serving REAL, nutritious food to every patient. Together, we can transform hospital nutrition, improve patient care, and Make America Healthy Again.

Thanks to President Trump, the Presidential Fitness Test is BACK. I joined Triple H and Cody Rhodes from the WWE at the Boys & Girls Clubs of America in Atlantic City, NJ, to encourage America's kids to Get Active. We are restoring a culture of strength, health, and fitness. Together, let's Make America Healthy Again! 🇺🇸

America faces more than a chronic disease epidemic that threatens our physical health. We also face a spiritual malaise that undermines our mental health. Our children are increasingly isolated, fragmented, and anxious, spending more than 8.5 hours a day on screens. This summer, put down the phone and reconnect with nature, family, and community. It's time to Take Back Your Health. Eat Real Food. Get Active. Together, we will Make America Healthy Again.

Every American deserves the opportunity to age with dignity. At InnovAge in Thornton, Colorado, I met seniors who are building friendships, receiving high-quality care, and remaining in their homes instead of nursing facilities. This is a model of healthcare that strengthens communities while delivering better outcomes.

Reports coming out of Germany show a government sidelining patient autonomy and limiting people's abilities to act on their own convictions when they face medical decisions. That is why Friday, I sent a letter to Germany's Federal Minister of Health, Nina Workin. In my letter, I made it clear that Germany has the opportunity and the responsibility to correct this trajectory, to restore medical autonomy, to end politically motivated prosecutions, and to uphold the rights that anchor every democratic nation.

For years, hospitals kept Americans in the dark about the true cost of care. Families made medical decisions without knowing the price—and too often got hit with bills that drained their savings. That ends now. Under President Trump’s leadership, HHS is enforcing hospital price transparency with real consequences. Dr. Oz CMS and I have a simple message for hospitals: Post your actual prices. Come into compliance immediately—or face serious consequences.

We reviewed the science, listened to the experts, and acted. BARDA is terminating 22 mRNA vaccine development investments because the data show these vaccines fail to protect effectively against upper respiratory infections like COVID and flu. We’re shifting that funding toward safer, broader vaccine platforms that remain effective even as viruses mutate.

Today Dept. of Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins and I secured a major win for animal welfare. Ridglan Farms will transfer its remaining 475 beagles out of a research breeding facility and into the care of a no-kill rescue, where they can begin the path to adoption. Thank you, Lara Trump, for championing this issue. We are also launching a new NIH office, ORIVA, to speed the transition away from animal testing and toward modern, human-based science. We will keep fighting for humane treatment of animals, better science, and accountability.
