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

SUMMARY: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is making his first appearance as health secretary before the powerful Senate health committee. Kennedy is expected to face intense scrutiny Wednesday about the thousands of jobs he’s eliminated at the Department of Health and Human Services, the steep cuts he’s made to vaccination campaigns and his response to a measles outbreak that’s sickened 1,000 people. Kennedy will speak about the agency’s budget request for the year, which includes a $500 million boost for his “Make America Healthy Again” initiative to promote nutrition and healthier lifestyles. The proposed budget also makes deep cuts, including to infectious disease prevention, maternal health and preschool programs.
