RFK Jr. has been anything but a darling to Washington, D.C., and the mainstream media ever since President Trump appointed him as the Health and Human Services Secretary. His stance on vaccines and outspokenness of changes he wants to make in the HHS put several Democrats on the warpath against him, trying to convince him to step down from his position during Thursday's hearings. Ron Wyden (D–OR) called for Kennedy's resignation in his opening remarks, and so did Raphael Warnock (D – GA), according to The Guardian.  A few Republicans in the hearing expressed concern and questioned whether or not he should be allowed to continue as the HAS secretary. These included Bill Cassidy (R-LA) and John Barrasso (R-WYO), as well as Thom Tillis (R-N.C.). Originally, Kennedy was appointed by Trump, according to Politico.  Here are 5 things you may want to know about RFK Jr.'s Senate Hearing and Vaccine Policy. 1.
