During his Senate confirmation hearing, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. sought to clarify his positions on vaccines and abortion amid bipartisan scrutiny. He claimed to be pro-vaccine and adopted a states' rights approach to abortion. Despite this, he did not fully disavow his history of anti-vaccine advocacy. Kennedy faced significant questioning on Medicaid reform but provided vague answers, demonstrating a need for clarity as he navigates the confirmation process, which allows him to lose only three GOP votes if all Democrats oppose him.
Kennedy argued he is not 'anti-vaccine' or 'anti-industry' but rather 'pro-safety', while failing to fully disavow past anti-vaccine statements.
During his Senate confirmation hearing, Kennedy's vague responses on Medicaid reform, particularly about dual eligibles, indicated a lack of clarity and understanding.
