HHS Alters Admiral Levines Portrait Nameplate, Sparking ControversyThe Department of Health and Human Services recently changed the nameplate on Admiral Rachel Levines portrait in the Hubert H. Humphrey Building, replacing her current legal name with a previous one. This move, confirmed by an HHS spokesperson, is part of their effort to align information with gold standard science and reverse policies enacted by Levine. Levine, a former admiral in the Public Health Service Commissioned Corps, called it a petty action.
