MAHA Summit at the Waldorf Astoria

The movement’s flagship summit closed with a Kennedy–Vance fireside chat — but drew fire over corporate sponsors (Walmart, OpenAI, Anthropic, Hims & Hers, Noom, Grail), with Bloomberg reporting tiers up to $300k including a speaking slot and private dinner with Kennedy and Oz. Grassroots figures denounced the corporate presence. Platform win, backlash setback.
