Dem Sen. Tina Smith: I Haven’t Yet Decided How I’m Going to Vote on Trump’s CDC Dir. Nominee

‘So my big question is, how much autonomy is she going to have?’

EXCERPT:

KEILAR: “Can you support Trump's new nominee for CDC director, Dr. Erica Schwartz? She is someone with a lengthy record of guiding vaccination programs. She is a veteran of public health service.”
SMITH: “So I'm going to be taking a hard look at that nominee, and I haven't decided how I'm going to vote on that yet. But I'm looking for people who are truly going to follow the facts and the science and the data, which is what we need to be doing when it comes to health care.”
