71 -year -old Kennedy launched a long shot campaign in April 2023 for President Joe Biden for the Democratic President. But six months later, he switched to a white house independent run.
Kennedy depressed the president's bid last August and made a big headline again when he supported Trump. Kennedy has been identified as a Democratic Party for a long time, and has repeatedly called out and called former President John F. Kennedy, formerly Senator Robert F. Kennedy and his deceased uncle, but both were assassinated in the 1960s. However, in recent years, Kennedy has built a relationship. A far -right leader who is partly due to his famous vaccine skepticism.
Immediately after the November election, Trump announced that it would nominate Kennedy to the Cabinet to operate HHS.
Two months after Trump's announcement, it is not only the Democratic Party who raised questions about Kennedy's confirmation. Social conservative Republican members had problems in past comments that support abortion rights.
“My beliefs should be left to women, even if they are in full period, they should not be involved in the government,” Kennedy said when he was a candidate.
However, after supporting Trump, Kennedy has returned his attitude toward abortion. Kennedy declared on Wednesday with the Democratic Senator Maggie Hassan in New Hampshire, “I agree with President Trump that all pregnancy abortion is a tragedy.”

Kennedy was also asked how to reform medical programs and Medicade, a large -scale government's medical program used by millions of elderly, disabled people, and low -income Americans.
“There is no wide proposal to dismantle the program,” Kennedy said about Medicade.
And he said, “I asked me to make it better,” rather than Trump asked him to cut the program.
Kennedy, who also caused a debate on the Big Pharma and the food industry, said, “If confirmed, I will do everything with my power to put American health on track.”
Democratic members aimed to change the focus of Kennedy's institutions to supervise to promote healthy lifestyles, aiming for the root cause of chronic diseases, aiming to overhaules and ultra -high -processing foods on meal guidelines. You may find something in common, but lamented that they opposed him because he was a candidate for Trump.
“”Kennedy argued that President Trump's decision was to make a decision and had RAMP humiliation, RIDED, credit, alienated, and slander, “Kennedy claimed.
