Bill Cassidy was a doctor, specifically working at the Earl K. Long Medical Center and teaching at Louisiana State University’s School of Medicine. His medical training led to his becoming the chair of the powerful Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee. In 2025 he voted to confirm the appointment of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., as the secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services, despite his concerns over Kennedy’s vaccine-skepticism.
