- The Trump administration released the Make America Healthy Again report on May 22, 2025, aimed at assessing U.S. public health and agriculture.
- The report produced under the direction of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who serves as Secretary of Health and Human Services, faced criticism for containing numerous inaccuracies and misrepresented research, potentially linked to sections generated by artificial intelligence.

- The flawed MAHA report sparked calls from farming groups and policymakers for President Trump to intervene, warning it could harm farmers, increase food costs, and damage consumer confidence in food safety.
