The Senate on Tuesday confirmed Scott Gottlieb, President Trump’s nominee to lead the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Gottlieb, a former FDA director and deputy commissioner under former President George W. Bush, was confirmed in a 57-42 vote. He will replace Robert Califf, the acting FDA chief who was appointed last year by former President Barack Obama.
“As a practicing physician with a wealth of policy experience, Dr. Gottlieb has the necessary qualifications to lead the FDA at this critical time,” Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said Tuesday on the Senate floor.
Finally! Hurrraaaah
Good...now label all foods with country of origin
At this rate Trump will have his administration in place by the time he runs again.
4000 back logged drugs, Obamacare replacement on deck, this couldn’t happen any later, we need the good Dr to get in the job and hit the job running!
Good...now label all foods with country of origin
Yes! and where it was processed. Some chicken is shipped from the USA to China for processing and shipped back for sale and is labeled “Product of USA”.
Pleased. Mr. Gottlieb seems to be an efficient sort.
Yeah, but will he do anything about the revolving door corruption between the FDA an Big Pharma? Nope. They take care of each other.
Now label all food as GMO if it is. And much of it is.
Hopefully the guy will undo the cigar regulations—they were Obozo insanity at its finest.
