GOP doctors press Kennedy on vaccines in tense Senate hearings
Two top GOP senators who are physicians pressed Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Wednesday about his controversial record on vaccines in their first public meeting in over seven months.
The Senate’s No. 2 Republican, John Barrasso (R-Wyoming), grilled Kennedy on vaccines and a key panel focused on preventive screening recommendations during a Senate Finance Committee hearing. And in the most anticipated health committee hearing hours later, Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-Louisiana) — Kennedy’s onetime political savior and now adversary — drilled into the vaccine issue.
