#shorts On 2/17/2023, a reporter asked White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, “it was also said that a CDC team, as you were saying, was being dispatched, that they’re going to be on the ground on Monday. I’m hoping you can kind of explain for people just why they’re only hitting the ground on Monday.
MS. JEAN-PIERRE: So —
Reporter: Why it’s not happening actually now, but also why it didn’t happen — this has been going on for a couple weeks now — why it didn’t happen before.
MS. JEAN-PIERRE: Well, I want to be very clear. On February 4th, we had folks on the ground within hours.
Reporter: An EPA team, right?
MS. JEAN-PIERRE: Yeah. Yeah, EPA team. But this matters, right? This happened on February 3rd … So — so — so it is, like, multiple federal agency, again, were on the ground, not just the EPA, within hours.
