The US Senate on Thursday voted to approve Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as the secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services, clearing the way for one of President Donald Trump’s more controversial Cabinet appointments.

Republican Sen. Mitch McConnell joined all 47 members of the Democratic Caucus in voting against the nomination.
