U.S. Congressman Morgan Griffith (R-VA), Chairman of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce Subcommittee on Health, made several speaking engagements in September to discuss his priorities for the Health Subcommittee. 

The Healthcare Leadership Council held their September membership meeting on Capitol Hill. Many members learned of Chairman Griffith’s goals to reform federal health agencies, such as the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). In the 119^th Congress, Chairman Griffith has introduced multiple federal health agency reform measures, including: the NIH Reform Act, the Risky Research Review Act and the Royalty Transparency Act.

The US Oncology Network convened in Washington, D.C., for their annual fly-in. Chairman Griffith visited their breakfast event and spoke with several members. The Network thanked Chairman Griffith for advancing H.R. 2484, the Seniors’ Access to Critical Medications Act, a bill that will help increase patient access to prescription drugs. Blue Ridge Cancer Care, which provides care in Virginia’s Ninth District, was represented at the Network event.

Chairman Griffith also delivered remarks at the Ripon Society. On top of discussions surrounding the Health Subcommittee, he spoke to the group in the wake of the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
