Green Party Stein on government regulations

  • Discussing vaccines, Stein said that the public lacks confidence in the agencies that regulate them because they are influenced by corporate lobbyists.[2]
  • "Vaccines are an invaluable medication," Stein told The Washington Post. But, "like any medication they also should be approved by a regulatory board that people can trust. And I think, right now, that is the problem — that people do not trust a Food and Drug Administration, or even the CDC for that matter, where corporate influence and the pharmaceutical industry has a lot of influence."[2]
  • Stein has expressed skepticism about the Food and Drug Administration and other agencies that regulate agriculture and pharmaceuticals because she believes that lobbyists have too great an impact on their decision making.[2]
