Quiver AI Summary

U.S. Representative Kelly Morrison (MN-03) has sent a letter to HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., seeking clarification on the decision to disband the Advisory Committee on Heritable Disorders in Newborns and Children (ACHDNC). This committee has played a key role in standardizing newborn screening across the U.S., according to Morrison.

The letter, co-signed by other representatives, expresses concerns that disbanding the ACHDNC could hinder timely access to crucial care for newborns. "The elimination of this committee will have devastating impacts on the delivery of time-sensitive, life-saving care," they noted.

In light of these developments, Morrison has introduced the Newborn Screening Saves Lives Reauthorization Act to restore the ACHDNC. She emphasized the importance of maintaining an infrastructure that supports early diagnosis and treatment of health conditions in newborns.
