Senate Democrats strongly criticized Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in a late-night session before his confirmation vote for the position of Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS). The vote is scheduled for 10:30 a.m. ET on Thursday, with Democrats raising concerns about Kennedy's qualifications and views.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer labeled Kennedy as 'obviously unqualified' and 'fringe,' expressing worries about his potential impact on American well-being. Schumer emphasized the importance of the HHS in ensuring safe food, reliable medication, Medicare benefits, and access to healthcare, highlighting Kennedy's lack of expertise in these areas.
