WASHINGTON — President-elect Donald Trump has selected Dave Weldon, a physician and former congressman, to lead the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Weldon served in the House of Representatives for more than two decades, including stints with the Appropriations Committee and the panel on oversight and reform. Trump nodded to those roles in his announcement, saying that Weldon has been a “respected conservative leader on fiscal and social issues.”
