Watch live: RFK Jr. faces second Senate confirmation hearing in bid to lead HHS

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., President Trump’s choice to helm the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), will testify Thursday morning before the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP).

This will be the second day in a row of hearings for Kennedy, who faced tough questioning on Wednesday from members of the Senate Finance Committee.

Kennedy, who has been under fire for his anti-vaccine rhetoric and past stance on reproductive rights, has received bipartisan criticism on his nomination.

The hearing is scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. EST.
