Surgeon General Nominee’s Hearing Postponed Due to Labor

Dr. Casey Means’ Senate hearing as President Trump’s nominee for surgeon general has been postponed due to her labor and childbirth. The first virtual hearing of its kind was scheduled two days after her expected due date, but it appears Means won’t be able to appear as planned. As a leading advocate for holistic health and wellness, Means was nominated in May and had championed natural foods, exercise, and reduced pharmaceutical use. It is unclear when the rescheduled hearing will take place.
