RFK Jr. Defends Vaccine Stance at HHS Confirmation Hearing, Pledges Health Overhaul

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., nominated by President Trump to lead the Department of Health and Human Services, will address his controversial stance on vaccines at his Senate confirmation hearing. Kennedy will clarify that he is “pro-safety” and not “anti-vaccine,” seeking to reassure lawmakers ahead of his confirmation. If approved, he plans to focus on reversing the chronic disease epidemic and promoting healthier lifestyles, including revising food regulations. His nomination is expected to face significant scrutiny due to past remarks on vaccines and his views on abortion.
