U.S. Comptroller General Gene Dodaro testified at a House Coronavirus Crisis Subcommittee hearing on vulnerabilities at federal agencies that manage public health emergencies and political interference. Mr. Dodaro testified about a new Government Accountability Office (GAO) report that highlighted weaknesses at the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response (ASPR) that allowed for officials in the Trump administration to change public health guidance. Ranking Member Steve Scalise (R-LA) along with other Republicans questioned the witnesses about Biden administration interference in COVID-19 guidance related school re-openings. According to Mr. Dodaro the report did not investigate those instances, but did make several recommendations for agency improvements to safeguard against future politicization of these public health agencies. close
