Dr. Harris Issues Statement Congratulating Dr. Tom Price on his Confirmation as HHS Secretary

WASHINGTON, DC: Congressman Andy Harris, M.D. (MD-01) released the following statement congratulating Congressman Tom Price, M.D. on his confirmation as Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services:

“I congratulate Dr. Tom Price on his confirmation as the next Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services. It’s been a long time since we’ve had a physician in that role, and America needs one in that role now more than ever. Dr. Price, who is a practicing orthopaedic surgeon, understands the American health care system, how good it is, and how much harm Obamacare has done to it over the past few years. I look forward to working with Dr. Price to repeal Obamacare and restore high-quality health care to the American public—the kind of care America deserves.”
