RFK Jr.’s Senate hearing on health department cuts to be delayed for weeks
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will likely delay his appearance before the Senate’s health committee by several weeks, even as he makes historic changes to the Department of Health and Human Services and contends with a surging measles outbreak.
Senate health committee Chair Bill Cassidy (R-La.) and ranking member Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) publicly asked the secretary to appear on April 10. They made the request on April 1, the same day that Kennedy executed major cuts to the federal health workforce.
