California Rep. Katie Porter exacted a commitment from the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to pay for coronavirus testing for uninsured Americans, grilling the Trump administration official repeatedly in the middle of a congressional hearing until he agreed the government would pay for the tests.

When CDC Director Robert Redfield agreed to Porter’s demands, she quickly turned to the American public to urge them to get tested.

“Everyone in America, hear that. You are eligible to go get tested for coronavirus and have that covered, regardless of insurance.”

Porter cited a provision in federal administrative law to ask Redfield if he would commit to “using that existing authority to pay for diagnostic testing free to every American regardless of insurance.”
