RFK Jr. continues serving as HHS Secretary more than a year after his February 2025 Senate confirmation, actively testifying before congressional committees on the administration’s health agenda and budget priorities through April and May 2026. The White House has directed focus toward quick policy wins on chronic disease and food quality ahead of midterms, while RFK Jr. maintains alignment on core Make America Healthy Again objectives. Earlier staff departures and external calls for resignation from medical groups have not translated into formal removal proceedings or public signals of departure. These factors sustain trader consensus that the 71% implied probability against an exit by December 31 reflects his ongoing institutional position and lack of immediate political pressure to step down.
