TL;DR Summary

The Senate Health Committee delayed votes on two health nominations but signaled support for CDC nominee Dr. Erica Schwartz after assurances from the Trump administration, including a change to the CDC’s autism-vaccine page clarifying that vaccines do not cause autism and that the science is evolving. The decision to move forward came amid attendance-driven delays, with Kaufman’s fate unclear and Murkowski absent; Cassidy framed the change as a step toward restoring public health trust in vaccines.
