Gabbard’s path through Intelligence Committee narrows ahead of key hearing

Some GOP senators want public commitments from Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Before deciding whether to support him as the next Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services, signaling that President Donald Trump's pick will have to win over uncertain Republicans in order to secure the job.
Kennedy has tried to tamp down concerns about his history of vaccine skepticism, including whether he supports the polio vaccine, stating he is 'all for' the polio vaccine.
Senate Majority Leader John Thune stated that Kennedy has effectively given reassurances to Republican senators skeptical of his view on vaccines and has a path to be confirmed.
Republican Senator Joni Ernst emphasized that Kennedy needs to clarify his position on abortion and climate change to assuage concerns.
