Robert F. Kennedy Jr., President Trump’s nominee for secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), faces uncertainty over his confirmation amid heated exchanges with lawmakers over his vaccine skepticism, past controversies, and stances on sensitive issues like abortion and Medicaid. Despite Republicans defending him, several GOP senators appear to be skeptical about confirming the 71-year-old Kennedy, whose outspoken views have sparked controversy within Trump’s party. With a 53-47 majority in the Senate, Kennedy can only afford to lose the support of three GOP senators if Democrats unite against his confirmation.
