Trump says autism announcement coming on Monday
- President Donald Trump is scheduled to make a significant announcement about autism on Monday at 4 p.m. local time related to the childhood autism epidemic.
- Earlier this year, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. pledged to disclose findings on autism's cause by September, linking environmental toxins to the condition.

- The forthcoming announcement is likely to face broad critique amid concern over premature conclusions and the controversy surrounding Kennedy's approach and the department's leadership.
