Peter J. Pitts reports:
From the start, Secretary Robert F. Kennedy has been one of the most controversial Cabinet picks in the current administration. His longstanding anti-vaccine rhetoric and vocal opposition to science-backed expert consensus has caused widespread concern among public health and medical professionals about the appropriateness of his leadership. Senators, both Democrats and Republicans, echoed such doubts during his confirmation hearings.
In the eight hours that senators grilled Kennedy on his policy positions, one recurring theme emerged: deep skepticism and hesitancy to confirm him because of his anti-vaccine past. Senator Bill Cassidy (R-LA), physician and chair of the Senate HELP Committee said, “Your past of undermining confidence in vaccines with unfounded or misleading arguments concerns me.”
But when it came to vote, Cassidy caved.
