President Trump and RFK Jr.

Michigan Democratic U.S. Rep. Haley Stevens attacked Robert Kennedy Jr., Secretary of Health and Human Services, during a committee hearing Friday and afterward told Deadline Detroit: “He has failed the American people.”

During the hearing before the House Education and Workforce Committee, Stevens, who is running for U.S. Senate, challenged Kennedy’s skepticism about measles vaccines for children.

In an interview with Deadline Detroit after the hearing, Stevens said she has called for Kennedy to resign. If he doesn't, she said, she will continue to push for articles of impeachment to remove him.

Watch the interview with Deadline Detroit in the video below, along with a snippet of Stevens’s exchange with Kennedy during the hearing on Capitol Hill.
