The U.S. Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions will hold its delayed confirmation hearing for Casey Means, President Donald Trump’s nominee for U.S. surgeon general, next week, the committee said on Wednesday.

The hearing will take place on February 25, the HELP committee said in a statement. It was originally scheduled last October but had to be postponed after Means, who was pregnant at the time, went into labor.
