Ex-Bush Health Official Wins $11 Million 9/11 Workers Contract - Ground Zero
OMG!
Ex-Bush Health Official Wins $11 Million 9/11 Workers Contract
The Centers for Disease Control has awarded an $11 million contract to a company headed by a former Bush cabinet official to track the health of thousands of workers who worked at Ground Zero following the 9/11 attacks. The company, Logistics Health, is headed by former secretary of health and human services Tommy Thompson. Thompson has previously been criticized for largely ignoring the health risks facing Ground Zero workers. Congresswoman Carolyn Maloney said, “It is ironic that former HHS Secretary Tommy Thompson’s firm won the contract to provide the services, given the history of delay from the Bush administration when he was secretary and now.”
