Over many years, Kennedy has been clear about his beliefs on vaccines in dozens of interviews, podcasts and social media posts.

The former U.S. ambasador — the last surviving child of Jacqueline and John F. Kennedy — urged lawmakers to reject RFK Jr.’s nomination as health secretary.

The Senate Finance Committee confirmation hearing of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., President Donald Trump's Health and Human Services secretary nominee, turns heated as Democrats grill him over vaccines

RFK Jr. claimed he is not “anti-vaccine” and appeared unfamiliar with key aspects of healthcare insurance programs in his confirmation hearing.

Kennedy, a Democrat who ended up supporting Trump in the 2024 presidential campaign, now faces two separate confirmation grillings over his controversial views -- on everything from vaccines to abortion -- that have both Republicans and Democrats raising concerns.

Kennedy casts himself as “anti-establishment,” but he doesn’t object to the cruel profit-driven health care system that leaves many Americans desperate.

While Mr. Kennedy, seeking the job of health secretary, has been vocal about vaccines and his desire to overhaul the nation’s diet, he has said very little about other issues.

Trump signed an executive order on Thursday to declassify files related to the assassinations of John F. Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy and the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.

If approved, Kennedy will control a $1.7 trillion agency that oversees food and hospital inspections, hundreds of health clinics, vaccine recommendations, and health insurance for roughly half the country.

Kennedy Jr. is expected to reject characterizations of him as an anti-vaxxer in a Senate hearing Wednesday where senators will weigh his confirmation as Health and Human Services Secretary—as his former billionaire running mate threatens to fund primary challenges against lawmakers who vote against him.

President Kennedy's grandson, Jack Schlossberg, is asking his family members to speak out against RFK Jr. on the eve of his senate confirmation hearings.

Caroline Kennedy on Tuesday cautioned senators against confirming her cousin, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., as Department of Health and Human Services Secretary in a letter questioning his views on vaccines, detailing alleged depraved behavior and saying he has an "addiction to attention and power” one day before his confirmation hearing starts.
