Sen. Lisa Murkowski is still angry over the agency’s approval of genetically engineered salmon and she made it clear she will not settle for voluntary labeling. “It was a sham and a farce for the FDA to even suggest that that was going to be satisfactory,” Murkowski told reporters. The Alaska Republican later tweeted: “I look forward to having conversations w/FDA on Frankenfish, but I intend to block Califf’s [nominee for FDA commissioner] confirmation until these issues are resolved.”
