BUSH ANNOUNCES INTENTION TO NOMINATE MARK MCCLELLAN TO BE FDA COMMISSIONER

On September 25, 2002, President George W. Bush announced his intention to nominate Mark B. McClellan to be Commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Dr. McClellan is now a member of the President's Council on Economic Advisors and he also serves as a senior policy director for health care and related economic issues for the White House. In making his announcement, President Bush said:

"As a doctor and researcher, Mark McClellan is uniquely qualified to serve as Commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration. His experience will be very valuable as the FDA faces new challenges in the coming year, including the implementation of legislation I recently signed to help protect the nation from bioterrorism threats, to help speed access to breakthrough medical treatments, and to make medical treatments safer. As head of the FDA, Mark will focus on empowering consumers and ensuring rapid access to products that are safe and effective."

Dr. McClellan was confirmed as a Member of the Council of Economic Advisers by the Senate on July 19, 2001. Before joining the CEA, he was Associate Professor of Economics at Stanford University, Associate Professor of Medicine at Stanford Medical School, a practicing internist, and Director of the Program on Health Outcomes Research at Stanford University. He was also a Research Associate of the National Bureau of Economic Research and a Visiting Scholar at the American Enterprise Institute. From 1998-99, he was Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Economic Policy, where he supervised economic analysis and policy development on a wide range of domestic policy issues.
