Robert F. Kennedy Jr., President Trump’s controversial pick to lead the US Department of Health and Human Services, will appear Wednesday before the Senate Finance Committee, to face questions — and fierce opposition from some lawmakers — about his bid to head the department.
It’s unclear whether RFK Jr. — who ran against Trump last year as an independent candidate for president before dropping out of the race and endorsing him — has the votes to be confirmed for the role. Some of his own family members, including cousin Caroline Kennedy, a former US Ambassador to Australia and Japan, have lambasted him as “dangerous” and “unqualified” to oversee America’s health bureau.
