"Kennedy was asked about everything from drug price negotiations to the new dietary guidelines, and did his best not to answer any questions about why he hates vaccines."
"Rep. Linda T. Sánchez criticized Kennedy's campaign with Kid Rock, questioning the public health message of spending taxpayer dollars on a pro-vaccine messaging campaign while engaging in such activities."
"Rep. Robert Aderholt asked Kennedy about the abortion pill, mifepristone, using the term 'chemical abortion,' which is not a recognized medical term, to frame his concerns."
Kennedy's testimony before the House Ways and Means Committee focused on defending his $16 billion budget for Health and Human Services. He was questioned on various topics, including drug price negotiations and dietary guidelines, but avoided addressing his views on vaccines. He denied making controversial statements about Black children and deflected criticism regarding his campaign with Kid Rock. Tension arose when Rep. Aderholt questioned him about the abortion pill mifepristone, using misleading terminology and citing a discredited study to support his claims.
