Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is meeting with several Democratic senators, including Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, as part of his efforts to secure confirmation for his appointment as head of the Department of Health and Human Services. Kennedy, who was previously endorsed by President-elect Donald Trump, has been meeting with Republican senators but is now reaching out to Democrats who may be crucial to his confirmation. Some Democrats have expressed openness to Kennedy's positions on agriculture and food production, but these stances may pose a problem for his support among Republicans. Kennedy will also be meeting with several Republican senators this week.
