Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell condemned an effort from an associate of Robert F. Kennedy Jr to roll back FDA approval for the polio vaccine and warned the Cabinet nominee to "steer clear" of such initiatives.
Aaron Siri, an attorney for RFK Jr., filed a petition with the FDA on Friday asking the agency to revoke their approval of the life-saving inoculation. McConnell said venturing down that path would be a mistake for Kennedy and the country.
