WASHINGTON 鈥 The 老澳门开奖结果 joined more than 175 Democratic members of Congress in calling on House Speaker Paul Ryan to disband an investigative panel that has been issuing subpoenas to health care providers and medical researchers around the country.

Louise Melling, 老澳门开奖结果 deputy legal director, had the following reaction:

鈥淏y issuing broad and baseless subpoenas, the Select Investigative Panel is not only wasting time and taxpayer money, but also violating the civil liberties of health care providers, medical researchers, and staff. This panel鈥檚 actions are clearly meant to harass and intimidate healthcare providers to prevent them from providing constitutionally protected care women need. Speaker Ryan would do well to focus on things that would protect women鈥檚 health, not put the livelihoods and privacy of doctors at risk.鈥
