Robert Califf Senate vote could clear path to top FDA job - STAT News

Read the full article: Robert Califf Senate vote could clear path to top FDA job - STAT News:

"In a move designed to circumvent opposition to Califf, who was nominated in September, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has scheduled a procedural vote for Monday afternoon. If Califf wins the support of at least 60 senators in that vote, he would move on to a final confirmation vote — likely Tuesday — and his Senate opponents would lose their leverage to stop him."

The story illustrates an unusual coalition of right and left-leaning members of the Senate, and common refrains about "industry ties" in government and medicine. Ultimately, arcane Senate rules allow the entire process to be stalled by these individual members of the body."
