"I'm grateful to Congresswoman Schrier and Ranking Member Eshoo for their leadership and insight as we work to reauthorize our nation's pandemic preparedness programs. In the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, it's more important than ever that we apply lessons learned to ensure that we are better prepared to respond to future public health emergencies, including the ongoing drug shortage crisis. While Republicans choose partisanship, Democrats will continue fighting to protect Americans' health and well-being."
