Senate Plans Confirmation Hearing for Surgeon General Nominee

The Senate is planning a confirmation hearing next week for Casey Means, President Donald Trump's nominee for surgeon general. Means has faced criticism over her experience and views, according to people familiar with the matter. The upcoming hearing will allow Means to address any concerns about her qualifications and address any questions from senators. As the surgeon general, Means would be the nation's top public health official, responsible for providing the American public with important health information and guidance. The nomination has drawn scrutiny, with some questioning Means' experience and perspectives. However, the confirmation process will provide an opportunity for Means to demonstrate her fitness for the role and for the Senate to thoroughly evaluate her nomination.
