Summary

Highlight any text to annotate
S.Res. 374 is a Senate resolution expressing that HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. should be removed from office, introduced by 24 senators who argue he lacks the confidence of the Senate and American people. The resolution alleges that Kennedy has violated his constitutional oath through multiple actions, including pushing out career scientists and replacing them with anti-vaccine associates, terminating approximately $11 billion in public health funding to states, firing thousands of federal employees in what the resolution characterizes as unlawful workforce reductions, canceling vaccine research projects, and removing COVID-19 vaccines from recommendations for pregnant women and children. The resolution further accuses Kennedy of making false claims about vaccine safety and autism, dismantling maternal health programs, and removing top health officials who objected to his policies—actions the resolution contends violate federal law and undermine scientific integrity at HHS. This resolution reflects Senate concern that Kennedy's actions have damaged public health and contradicted his pre-confirmation commitments to maintain scientific integrity within the department.
