Kennedy Jr., has received a boost for his confirmation prospects. Rhode Island Democrat Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, a longtime friend of Kennedy, may break party lines to vote in his favor, thanks to their strong bond dating back to law school.<\/p>\n<p>Their friendship dates to when they were roommates, with memories of shared outdoor adventures. Despite this, Whitehouse has remained tight-lipped about how he will vote on Kennedy\u2019s confirmation, saying he would withhold his decision for now.<\/p>\n<p>Kennedy\u2019s confirmation hearings are scheduled before the Senate Finance and HELP committees, with the Finance Committee being the one to decide if his nomination moves forward. His confirmation will be closely watched as both Democrats and Republicans weigh in.<\/p>\n<p>While Whitehouse&#8217;s potential support is a positive sign, Kennedy faces opposition from some Republicans, making his confirmation uncertain.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Trump\u2019s nominee to head Health and Human Services, Robert F.
