Timothy Westlake to head SAMHSA?

Almost 18 months after taking office, President Trump nominated a leader for the federal agency that oversees mental health and addiction policy. If confirmed by the Senate, Timothy Westlake would be promoted to assistant secretary of mental health and substance use, which would also make him head of SAMHSA. Meanwhile, the Senate health committee delayed yesterday’s planned vote on Dr Erica Schwartz to lead the CDC.
