Summary
Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. described the U.S. declining birth rate as an "existential crisis" threatening both the economy and national security. Speaking at a White House maternal healthcare event on May 11, he claimed men in the 1970s had twice the sperm count of today's teenage boys, attributing the decline to environmental factors including metabolic health issues, obesity, endocrine disruptors, pesticides, and what he called a "toxic soup" of environmental contaminants. Kennedy stated the Department of Health is investigating these factors.
