Republican Rep. Todd Tiahrt of Kansas said he would not back Democratic Gov. Kathleen Sebelius to head the Department of Health and Human Services.

Tiahrt said she “holds some liberal views that I cannot support,” including abortion.

President Barack Obama nominated Sebelius this week as secretary of HHS. Tiahrt called the choice “par for the course.”
