Today marks Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s first year in office as the nation's health secretary, and evidence of his tenure is everywhere. A surging measles outbreak in South Carolina is nearing 1,000 cases. The childhood vaccination schedule has been whittled down from 17 recommended childhood vaccines to 11, against the vehement objections of major medical organizations. Path-breaking research has been cancelled summarily, clinical trials halted, and thousands of employees have been purged from the nation's health agencies. The American Academy of Pediatrics has become a voice of resistance.

From the very beginning of Kennedy's tenure, Sen. Angela Alsobrooks (D-Md.), a former prosecutor and Prince George's county executive, has made it her singular mission to remove him as health secretary. As a member of the U.S. Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP), her face-offs with him have gone viral.

. . .

She was the first to issue a no-confidence resolution against Kennedy in May, which only four of her colleagues signed onto. Since then, she and Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) have kept a running list of what they call the "Costs, Chaos, and Corruption" of his leadership, released today in a 71-page report, which she hopes will provide a blueprint for reversing the damage once he's out of office.

Now, 28 senators have co-signed the no-confidence resolution and joined her "Sick of It" campaign, premised on the idea that removing him as health secretary is a matter of life and death for the American people.
