The Biden administration is maneuvering behind the scenes to ensure that the federal government abandons its current alcohol-intake recommendations in favor of a teetotaling approach that would have Americans abandon drinking altogether, House Republicans allege in a new letter to Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra.

The Biden administration is violating federal law by delegating responsibility for the development of alcohol-intake guidelines to a subagency of HHS, rather than to the secretary himself, as part of a plan to get the government to recommend Americans abstain from alcohol, House Oversight committee chairman James Comer argues in a Thursday letter to Becerra, obtained exclusively by National Review.
