Axios was the first to break the news, stating that Weldon's
"views questioning certain vaccines have garnered attention

The New York Times reached Weldon by phone. The former Florida

House official told him that "they didn't have the votes
to confirm" his nomination.

Washington DC giving millions of dollars to politicians on both sides
of the aisle."
