Confirmation hearing delayed for Ronny Jackson, Trump's VA Secretary pick - NBC News

Ronny Jackson’s confirmation hearing to lead the Department of Veterans Affairs, scheduled for Wednesday afternoon, was postponed due to unspecified concerns about Jackson's background, two sources told NBC News.

A White House official said the scope of the allegations are not yet clear. An aide to a Republican senator on the committee said members are continuing to dig into Jackson's recent history.
