Statement by Mike Leavitt Secretary of Health and Human Services Regarding Senate Confirmation of New FDA Commissioner
I am pleased that the Senate acted today to approve the nomination of Dr. Lester Crawford to be Commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Dr. Crawford is a dedicated public servant who has ably led the agency over the last year and previously served as Deputy Commissioner. The FDA has a critical role in protecting the nation’s food supply and ensuring the safety of the medicines we take based on the best science available. I look forward to working with Dr. Crawford and FDA as we seek to continue advancing the nation’s health.
