Elizabeth Wright | Citizens Against Government Waste

Elizabeth Wright

Elizabeth Wright served as the Director of Health and Science Policy at Citizens Against Government Waste. She has been involved with healthcare since graduating from college with a Bachelor’s Degree in Medical Technology from Fitchburg State College in Massachusetts and a Master’s in Government from Johns Hopkins University.

Ms. Wright began her D.C. career during the George H.W. Bush administration at the Food and Drug Administration. Since then, she has worked at a heathcare lobbying firm; a free-market technology think tank; the Department of Health and Human Services Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation under the George W. Bush Administration, and lobbying for a pharmaceutical firm. But, most of her D.C. career was at Citizens Against Government Waste because, "They fight for what I believe in: a smaller government, less regulation, fewer taxes, and a free market that respects property rights." Ms. Wright resides in Virginia.
