A new GAO report finds that FDA's denial of Plan B emergency contraception diverged sharply from usual agency procedures and overrode the recommendations of agency scientists. In a letter to HHS Secretary Leavitt, Rep. Waxman and 17 other members deplore the FDA decision and question why former FDA Commissioner Mark McClellan did not respond to GAO’s questions, why FDA could not provide written communication or emails from Dr. McClellan's office, and whether the agency is violating federal records management laws. |
