West Virginia is leading the charge to get dangerous chemicals out of America’s food. Governor Patrick Morrisey just signed a groundbreaking law banning seven fake food dyes and two harmful preservatives. This is part of the Trump administration’s “Make America Healthy Again” push, showing strong leadership where others have failed.
stood with Morrisey to celebrate the new rules. Starting this August, school lunches in West Virginia won’t have these bad dyes. By 2028, all food sold in the state must meet these higher standards. Kennedy says this protects kids from brain problems and long-term health issues caused by artificial junk in snacks and drinks.
Big food companies are crying foul, claiming prices will rise and jobs will vanish. But conservatives know you can’t put a price on children’s health. These dyes have been linked to hyperactivity and even cancer. If California’s liberal leaders can ban some chemicals, why shouldn’t West Virginia go further? Real Americans want safe food, not corporate excuses.
Kennedy’s next target is fixing the broken food stamp program. He wants to stop SNAP benefits from buying sugary sodas that make obesity worse. Hardworking taxpayers shouldn’t fund drinks that poison poor communities. This is common sense, not government overreach. Let welfare help families buy nutritious food, not junk.
Even the Biden administration’s FDA banned Red Dye No. 3 earlier this year. That proves this isn’t a partisan issue—everyone knows these chemicals are bad. But under Trump, real action is happening. Over 20 states are now pushing similar laws because Washington dragged its feet too long.
Liberals whine about “choice,” but parents don’t want neon-colored poison in their pantries. West Virginia is proof that states can lead. The MAHA movement is waking up America to the toxins hiding in everyday foods. This is about freedom from sickness, not taking away snacks.
Critics say the bans will hurt stores and factories. But smart companies like McCormick are already ditching dyes to meet consumer demand. Free markets work best when customers know the truth. Let businesses compete to sell safer products, not race to the bottom with cheap chemicals.
Secretary Kennedy and Governor Morrisey are showing true conservative values—protecting families, fixing welfare, and putting America’s health first. With red and blue states joining this fight, it’s clear: healthier food means a stronger nation. The left’s addiction to big government failed. Now, real leaders are cleaning up the mess.
