Chairmen Guthrie and Griffith Announce Hearing on Department of Health and Human Services FY 2027 Budget

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congressman Brett Guthrie (KY-02), Chairman of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, and Congressman Morgan Griffith (VA-09), Chairman of the Subcommittee on Health, announced a hearing titled The Fiscal Year 2027 Department of Health and Human Services Budget.

“This Congress, Republicans have upheld our commitment to improving the American health care system—whether it be through examining the root causes impacting health care affordability or our extensive work to root out waste, fraud, and abuse in government health programs to ensure they can continue to serve our most vulnerable populations for generations to come. In fact, this week, the Subcommittee is holding a hearing to explore legislation that expands access to care across the nation and broadly promotes the health and well-being of Americans,” said Chairmen Guthrie and Griffith. “Next week’s hearing allows us to hear from Secretary Kennedy on his efforts to support a healthier America under President Trump and discuss areas where we can continue collaborating to lower health care costs, protect American patients, and ultimately, make America healthy again.”
