As world leaders begin addressing the United Nations climate summit today in Antalya, Turkey,
One Hundred Ninety Seven nations will be represented. Some countries like Britain and Japan
have pushed forward with plans to drive down greenhouse gases. A negotiator from Ghana
is leading a group of African countries in the talks. The political climate in the United States changed abruptly last week, as Democrats dominated the midterms. The new Congress controlled
by Democrats will have limited power to enact climate policies with Trump still in office.
But Democrats intend to rein in Trump who has promoted fossil fuels and waged attacks
on the clean energy industry. Some are already looking ahead to the possibility that, if a Democrat
were elected president in Two Thousand Twenty Eight, the United States might return to the U.N.
climate negotiations. Many Americans are participating at events at COP31, including foundations
and nonprofit groups based in the United States as well as current and former Democratic politicians and policymakers, Gavin Newsom, Tim Walz, Al Gore and Senator Sheldon Whitehouse of Rhode Island.

Kennedy’s Future: Will Democrats Try to Impeach Him, or Actually Work With Him? Most Democrats abhor the health secretary’s stance on vaccines. The question now is whether Democrats will use their new majorities in Congress to try to push him out. Many want to investigate him, saying his vaccine agenda and handling of measles outbreaks have put American lives at risk. Some, including Senator-elect Annie Andrews of South Carolina, want to impeach him. Senator Angela Alsobrooks, Democrat of Maryland, wants RFK Junior removed, but has not said how. Senator-elect Abdul El-Sayed of Michigan, a doctor and former state public health official, has proposed his own MAHA agenda under a different name: Build a Healthier America. MAHA activists across the political spectrum have soured on the Trump White House for stalling RFK Junior ’s effort to regulate ultra processed foods. The blue wave sent a string of Democratic doctors, scientists and health professionals to Congress, who arrived in Washington for freshman orientation this week. In the past, most of the doctors in Congress have been Republicans, often self-employed and driven to run by business concerns.

The new crop of Democrats with professional health backgrounds are animated by the cost of care, access to treatments and in some cases antipathy toward RFK Junior. Ms. Andrews,
the senator-elect from South Carolina, a state hit hard by the measles epidemic,
ran on a platform of impeaching RFK Junior . “He’s a clear and present danger to public health,”
Ms. Andrews, a pediatrician, said during the campaign. After the election, Erik Polyak,
the executive director of 314 Action, a political action committee that backs scientists and health professionals who run for public office, predicted a rough road ahead for RFK Junior. The founder and president of 314 Action, who is a chemist and former congressional candidate from Pennsylvania, saw the election results as a repudiation of the RFK Junior policies, including his attacks on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the National Institutes of Health. Early next week, an arm of the World Health Organization is expected to strip the United States of its designation as a nation that has eliminated measles. The disease has killed 11 people in the country since RFK Junior took office.

Senator Bernie Sanders, the Vermont independent who caucuses with Democrats and is likely to become the next chairman of the Senate health committee, said he is “absolutely open” to impeachment. MAHA PAC did help elect one Republican, Julia Letlow, the senator-elect from Louisiana, though she did not flip a seat. She will replace Senator Bill Cassidy, who lost to her in a primary. But some of the MAHA PAC’s marquee Republican candidates lost last week. They include Senator Roger Marshall of Kansas; Ken Paxton, the Texas attorney general who was running for Senate; and Zach Lahn, candidate for Iowa governor. At the MAHA Action post-election event, a MAHA funder blamed corporate influence
and “Big Food, Big Ag, Big Pharma” for the outcomes.
