The Senate Finance Committee voted to improve the Nomination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to be the Secretary of Health and Human Services in a complete Senate.
The Committee voted 14-13 along the party lines for CONNEDY AFTER THE EXAMINATION that they sometimes turned as many senators asked Kennedy His record promoting a discredited relationship between vaccines and autism.
Senal. Bill Cassidy, a Republican from Louisiana and the doctor, said before the hearing that he would vote for CONNEDY confirmation. During his second hearing before health, education, labor and pension (assistance), Cassidy, Chair of the Committee, repeatedly on Grilled Kennedy about his claims about vaccines and autism.
Cassidy, one of the seven republican senators who voted for convicting Trump for his actions, is facing heavy reissue elections and the right primary challenge of Louisiana Treasurer John Fleming.
Trump himself also promoted the connection between vaccines and autism regularly. Just before the voice, Trump published a false bond between vaccines and autism on social research.
“20 years ago, autism in children was 1 in 10,000,” Trump announced. “It’s 1 in 34. Wow! Something is really wrong. We need Bobby !!! Thanks!”
Diagnosis of autism largely pointed Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders They expanded diagnostic criteria for autism because previously considered a symptom of schizophrenia. The passage of individuals in 1990. year with disabilities of the Law on Education led to the schools that must report the number of students with the outsmak of autism (ASD) that he had to report. Andrew Wakefield, a former British doctor who released an initial study that connects autism and measles, mumps and Rubella vaccine have lost their medical permit.
After the vote, Senad Ron Wyden, the top Demcorat on the Senate Financing Committee, said the Senate Democrats would fight against the teeth and nail against Kennedy.
“We will continue to fight for every possible voice on the floor,” he told reporters. “I’ll just tell you that this is the most scientific nominated I have encountered in more than 40 years in public service.”
Senate Raphael Warnock, the Democrat from Georgia warned that Trump said he would let Kennedy “go wild” to health care. But the Senar Thom Tillis from North Carolina said after the vote that Kennedy did.
“I, for one, I think it’s time to set up a remedelator,” he said. “But there are areas in which I think that is exactly what we need, and there are areas in health and human services, if you touch the gold standard for NIH and CDC, then I will have problems with that nominium and we’ll get it during supervision.”
Kennedy’s voice comes as a board of Senate serving the Committee for some of the most favorable nominated presidents Donald Trump. The Senate Intelligence Committee will also vote on Tuesday whether to improve ex Congressional that the appointment of Tulsius Gabardo is the director of national intelligence.
This confirmation seemed more likely to be on Monday evening when it is to take a seat. Susan Collins, a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee who had numerous outstanding concerns about Gabbard, announced that he would vote to vote.
A positive vote on Kennedy to be a secretary means that the nomination will go to a completely pit. As Chairman Mike Crapo ripped the hearing, a lot of people broke out into the applause.
