In a letter to Walensky, Rep. Brad Wenstrup (R-Ohio), chair of the subcommittee, said the committee is demanding the records for its investigation into potential political interference on the part of AFT with the CDC’s school reopening recommendations during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Weingarten told the committee during a hearing in April that she had Walensky’s direct phone number — which Walensky confirmed during her testimony before the same committee earlier this month.

The subcommittee gave the CDC until July 12 to respond with the phone records, along with transcribed interviews with three CDC employees who "may have supplementary knowledge about political interference at the agency."

The three employees in question are Christopher M. Jones, PharmD, DrPH, MPH, director of the National Center for Injury Prevention and Control; Henry Walke, M.D., MPH, director of the Office of Readiness and Response; and Greta Massetti, Ph.D., MPH, branch chief of the CDC’s Field Epidemiology and Prevention Branch.

According to the Washington Examiner, "Wenstrup is looking to preserve phone records between the two on both Walensky’s official and personal phones, particularly in light of the director’s announcement she would be leaving her post Friday."
