Environmental Advocates Urge RFK Jr. to Withdraw Presidential Bid
Nearly 50 environmental leaders and activists who worked with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. at the Natural Resources Defense Council are urging him to drop his independent presidential bid, citing concerns that his candidacy could siphon votes away from President Biden and potentially help elect former President Donald J. Trump. They have taken out full-page advertisements in six swing states calling on him to "Honor our planet, drop out," while a dozen national environmental organizations have labeled him a "dangerous conspiracy theorist and a science denier."
