WASHINGTON, April 11 — “Sen. Lamar Alexander, R-Tennessee, issued the following statement, which was published in the Congressional Record on April 9, paying tribute to Scott Gottlieb, commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration:
Nearly two years ago, just before the Senate voted to confirm Dr. Gottlieb to lead the Food and Drug Administration, FDA, I said that he was “the right person to lead the FDA in [its] vital mission and move the agency forward so that America’s patients can benefit from the remarkable discoveries . . . that our nation’s researchers are working on.”

Dr. Gottlieb has been one of the President’s best appointments.
