Senator Stabenow on FDA Authorization for Pfizer’s COVID-19 Vaccine

Washington, D.C. – Senator Debbie Stabenow released the following statement after the United States Food and Drug Administration approved Pfizer’s Emergency Use Authorization for the COVID-19 Vaccine:

“I am grateful for the scientists, trial participants and public health experts across our country who made this achievement possible. Michigan workers are the best in the world, and with a COVID-19 vaccine being manufactured here, Michigan workers will play an important role in saving lives.

“The FDA authorization is great news for our families, workers and economy, but the hard work is not over. We must now effectively distribute vaccines around the country and continue to keep one another safe.”
