Haley Stevens to file articles of impeachment against RFK Jr.
Stevens announced her drafting of the impeachment articles on Thursday, just days after Kennedy made a controversial announcement linking the use of Tylenol during pregnancy.
“RFK Jr. is making our country less safe and making healthcare less affordable and accessible for Michiganders,” Stevens wrote in a press release
“His contempt for science, the constant spreading of conspiracy theories, and his complete disregard for the thousands of research hours spent by America’s top doctors and experts is unprecedented, reckless, and dangerous.”
“Enough is enough – we need leaders who put science over chaos, facts over lies, and people over politics, which is why I am announcing today that I have begun drafting articles of impeachment against Secretary Kennedy,” she continued.
While many Democrats in Congress have called on Kennedy to step down or be fired, Stevens would be the first to file articles of impeachment against the Cabinet secretary.
Stevens said the articles of impeachment will focus on his cutting of “lifesaving” research, restricting access to vaccines, spreading conspiracies, lying in his confirmation hearing, and his failure to carry out his duties in administering the Food and Drug Administration and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
