Indiana Senator Jim Banks asks nominee to be US Surgeon General Casey Means at her confirmation hearing if she would not agree she would be the first MAHA Surgeon General and what the public is not hearing that she is uniquely qualified to communicate to them, with Means responding she thinks anyone who has not read the MAHA strategy that came out at the end of last year should read it because it outlines an unbelievably positive, comprehensive, forward-thinking way of addressing the root causes of why people are sick as a profound groundbreaking document, noting many pieces from that strategy document are already way out of the barn with wins happening already that will make healthcare and food more affordable and accessible for all Americans, emphasizing this is a huge sea change shift from what has been heard from prior administrations in her lifetime as she has not heard at the federal level this sort of impassioned brave approach to talking about busting through industry conflicts, conflicts in research and corporate capture of agencies and health organizations.
