Orrin Hatch: “Will the backlog be eliminated before the start of GDUFA II?”

I say, 'damn right.'

It has been one of the great honors of my life to serve on this committee.

The Finance Committee has worked with the Treasury Department to ensure proper responsiveness to committee inquiries. We are continuing to review these matters to determine what further oversight is required.

Those backlogs at the Social Security Administration are unacceptable to many, if not most, of us here in the Senate.
