E&C COMMITTEE REPUBLICANS HEAD HOME WITHOUT ACTING ON THE NATIONAL DRUG SHORTAGE CRISIS

Press Release

"This bill, in my opinion, is nothing more than an attempt to undermine the Biden Administration and force the CDC's newest director, Dr. Mandy Cohen, to be relegated to an acting position subject to the political whims of the United States Senate. This bill serves no other purpose than subjecting a qualified, seasoned public health leader to a drawn-out confirmation fight at a time when Senators, as we've seen plainly, are more than willing to hold up critical appointments that are vital to our national security."
