Robert F. Kennedy Jr. answered questions from lawmakers on Capitol Hill in his role as health and human services secretary, facing scrutiny over his positions and qualifications for the post.
The hearing represented a key moment for Kennedy's confirmation process, with members of Congress pressing him on various health policy matters and his background before assuming the HHS leadership position.
Author Sarah Mitchell: "Kennedy's willingness to sit for the tough questions signals the administration is ready to defend his appointment, even if his vaccine skepticism still makes plenty of senators nervous."
