Former Rep. Joe Kennedy III (D-MA) is demanding his uncle Robert F. Kennedy Jr. resign, saying he's endangering American lives.

In a statement he posted on X, the younger Kennedy said, "Robert Kennedy Jr. is a threat to the health and well-being of every American. A United States Secretary of Health and Human Services is tasked with protecting the public health of our country and its people. At yesterday's hearing, he chose to do the opposite: to dismiss science, mislead the public, sideline experts sow confusion."

He warned that no one will be "spared the pain" that Kennedy will cause, as any person can expose the vulnerable to diseases.

"It doesn't matter how rich or powerful you are or what state you live in—the heartbreak of watching a loved one fall ill knows no borders," the former congressman said.

"The challenges before us—from disease outbreaks to mental health crises—demand moral clarity, scientific expertise, and leadership rooted in fact. Those values are not present in the Secretary's office. He must resign," former Rep. Kennedy closed.

Jack Schlossberg, the grandson of John F. Kennedy and son of Caroline Kennedy, added his voice as well.
