Secretary Kennedy expands leadership team

WASHINGTON— Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. today announced several key additions to his leadership team at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), a move aimed at advancing President Trump’s Great Healthcare Plan and the Make America Healthy Again agenda.

As part of the realignment, Chris Klomp has been appointed Chief Counselor at HHS and will oversee all departmental operations. Klomp brings decades of proven leadership and management experience to the position. Secretary Kennedy also named Kyle Diamantas and Grace Graham as Senior Counselors for the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and John Brooks as Senior Counselor for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). Each will continue in their current capacities while also serving in the Secretary’s office.

“In just over a year, we’ve made historic progress on President Trump’s healthcare priorities and achieved meaningful, measurable results,” said Secretary Kennedy. “We’re restoring accountability, challenging entrenched interests, and ensuring the health of the American people remains our top priority. I’m proud to elevate these battle-tested, principled leaders to my immediate team—individuals with the courage and skill to help us move faster and further in our mission to Make America Healthy Again.”
