Gov. Jared Polis (D-CO) explained that he supports Robert F. Kennedy Jr.‘s nomination to head the Department of Health and Human Services, despite differing with him on some issues, because he is not a pharmaceutical lobbyist.
Polis took some flak from Democrats upset he bucked the party after he endorsed President-elect Donald Trump’s pick to lead HHS earlier this month. But the Colorado governor explained during a CNN appearance Friday that his decision came not because he agreed with Kennedy on everything, but because he’s optimistically focused on the common ground they share.
