NBC News: RFK Jr. Meets Senators on Capitol Hill
EXCERPT:
KAPUR: “Yeah, not much so far, Ryan. We know that in the last hour, Kennedy arrived for the first time on Capitol Hill to begin a series of meetings. The first meeting was with Senator Rick Scott. Heading into that meeting, Kennedy didn’t really engage with shouted questions from reporters about his stances on vaccines and abortion, two issues that are looming over his confirmation process. He’s also expected to meet later today, we believe, with Senator Ron Johnson, Markwayne Mullin, Tim Scott, and later this week with heavy hitters like John Thune and John Barrasso, the incoming number one and two Republicans, as well as Mike Crapo, the chair of the Finance Committee that’s going to report out his nomination and kind of determine whether he has the votes to get to the floor. So, a long way to go here, it’s just the start of a process.”
