Senate committee postpones vote on Michaels nomination
The Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee on Wednesday postponed its vote on David Michaels' nomination to head OSHA.
Michaels was late in submitting answers to committee members' questions, and the senators did not have an opportunity to "adequately review" his answers after receiving them on Tuesday, according to a spokesperson for Sen. Tom Harkin (D-IA), HELP Committee chairman.
Michaels' nomination vote had not been rescheduled as of deadline.
