美国参议院卫生委员会推迟了对CDC主任提名人埃丽卡·施瓦茨的投票表决1。原定周四进行的投票因共和党参议员出现家庭紧急情况而延期至下周1。
施瓦茨现年54岁，若获得参议院批准，将成为CDC的第22任主任1。在确认听证会上，参议员曾质询她如何应对来自卫生部长肯尼迪的政治压力1。
参议院卫生委员会主席、路易斯安那州共和党参议员比尔·卡西迪表示已决定支持施瓦茨的提名，并认为她能够抵制来自肯尼迪的政治压力1。
此外，卫生应急与防备助理部长提名人肖恩·考夫曼的投票也被推迟至7月30日1。
The Senate Health Committee has delayed its vote on whether to advance Erika Schwartz as director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 1. The vote, originally scheduled for Thursday, has been pushed to the following week due to a family emergency involving a Republican senator 1.
Schwartz, 54, would become the CDC's 22nd director if confirmed 1. During her confirmation hearing, senators questioned her on how she would respond to political pressure from Health Secretary Kennedy 1. Committee Chair Bill Cassidy, a Louisiana Republican, has decided to support Schwartz's nomination, indicating he believes she is capable of resisting such pressure 1.
The committee also postponed the vote on Sean Kaufman's nomination for Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response, rescheduling it for July 30 1.
