We eliminated measles once. We can do it again — but only if vaccination rates rise.

And where are we now? We don't know - and Congress does not know - exactly how deep the cuts were to the FDA divisions responsible to food safety. FDA partners with the CDC in protecting us from foodborne illness and chemical contamination - and we know how damaged the CDC is.
