Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is on the verge of a decisive Senate Finance Committee vote regarding his nomination as the nation's health secretary. While Republicans like Sen. Thom Tillis have backed him, concerns linger among Democrats about Kennedy's potential profit from anti-vaccine actions. A critical undecided vote comes from Republican Sen. Bill Cassidy, who has expressed alarm over Kennedy's past statements undermining vaccine confidence. With key Republican votes uncertain, the dynamics around Kennedy's nomination remain tense as the committee deliberates his qualification for the role.
Your past, undermining confidence in vaccines with unfounded or misleading arguments, concerns me, Cassidy told Kennedy.
Cassidy stated that he had cordial conversations with Kennedy over the weekend but was still working through how to handle his vote.
