Senate HELP Committee votes to send FDA fees bill to the floor: CQ Roll Call

"Lee Bendekgey, chief policy officer at genetic testing lab Invitae, said the provisions — which come from a bipartisan bill to establish an oversight framework for lab-developed tests known as the VALID Act (S 2209) — would hinder the public health response to infectious outbreaks. He pointed to the CDC’s recent call for help on monkeypox tests." Lee is also a LAB Coalition steering committee member and we applaud his leadership on this issue.”
