Overview
- Stevens’ 13-page resolution accuses Robert F. Kennedy Jr. of abuse of authority and undermining public health.
- Allegations include deep cuts to cancer and other research, elimination of mRNA and vaccine-hesitancy studies, and the firing of CDC vaccine advisers.
- The filing cites altered vaccine recommendations and claims Kennedy pushed unfounded links between Tylenol and autism.
- HHS spokesman Andrew Nixon dismissed the move as a partisan stunt and said Kennedy is focused on improving health and lowering costs.
- Democratic leaders have not backed the effort, colleagues describe it as symbolic, and outside groups such as Stand Up For Science have urged Kennedy’s removal.
