What to expect at RFK Jr.'s first Senate hearing as health secretary
Briefly

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., now serving as the health secretary, faces intense scrutiny due to his controversial views on vaccines and significant cuts to health programs. While presenting a $500 million initiative to improve nutrition, his management has also resulted in steep reductions to vaccination campaigns and other critical health services. Supporters argue he is advancing his 'Make America Healthy Again' agenda, but his approach has alarmed lawmakers, particularly regarding public trust and effective health intervention amid ongoing health crises.
Kennedy's management has faced scrutiny for significant cuts in vaccination campaigns, and the agency's budget proposal indicates a prioritization of nutrition over infectious disease prevention.
Senator Cassidy's reservations about Kennedy's promotion of conspiracy theories concerning vaccines underscore a significant challenge in public trust and the effectiveness of health leadership.
