Former President Donald Trump on Friday promised to start two new initiatives and commissions if he's elected back to the White House this November.

The two projects are in honor of former independent presidential contender Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who dropped his own bid for the White House earlier Friday and endorsed Trump. Kennedy also joined Trump at his Arizona rally.

One project will be a presidential commission on assassination attempts, which will be tasked with reviewing and releasing the remaining documents on the assassination of the late-President John F. Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s uncle.

The commission would also investigate the assassination attempt on Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, last month. 

"I have never had more people ask me, please, sir, release the documents on the Kennedy assassination, and we're going to do that," Trump said at the rally.

Trump said the other project will be a panel of experts that will work with Kennedy to investigate the cause of an increase in chronic health problems and childhood diseases. 

"I want to salute Bobby's decades of work as an advocate for the health of our families and our children," Trump said when announcing the initiative. "Nobody's done more. Millions and millions of Americans who want clean water and a healthy nation have concerns about toxins in our environment and pesticides in our food."

Trump claimed some of the health concerns facing children in the U.S. are a rise in autoimmune diseases, obesity, and autism. 

"We want every child in America to grow up and to live a long and healthy life," he added.
