Calley Means, a senior adviser and prominent advocate for the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement, resigned from his position in the Trump administration on Thursday. Means, who co-authored a foundational text for the movement and served as a key ally to Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., stepped down amid reports of frustration regarding the administration's progress on food policy reforms.
The departure occurs two weeks before the midterm elections and highlights growing tension between the administration and its MAHA base. The resignation is attributed to dissatisfaction over the pace of changes to national food policy, which remains a central objective for the movement's supporters.
