INTRODUCTION AND SUMMARY Complaint Origin and Allegations The President nominated Rear Admiral (Lower Half) (RDML) Ronny Lynn Jackson, M.D., to serve as the Secretary of Veterans Affairs on April 16, 2018. The Senate Committee on Veterans’ Affairs subsequently interviewed 23 current and former colleagues of RDML Jackson, who “raised serious concerns about [RDML] Jackson’s temperament and ethics and cast doubt on his ability to lead the second largest agency in government.” The Ranking Member of that Committee, Senator Jon Tester (D-MT), released a two-page summary on April 25, 2018, with the concerns grouped into three categories: “Prescribing Practices,” “Hostile Work Environment,” and “Drunken[n]ess.” The Senate Armed Services Committee asked the DoD Office of Inspector General (OIG) to investigate the allegations against RDML Jackson on April 26, 2018.1 The DoD Hotline received 12 complaints from April 26, 2018, through June 7, 2018. The complaints and additional allegations raised by witnesses generally alleged that RDML Jackson, while serving as Director, White House Medical Unit (WHMU), a DoD unit tasked with providing medical support to the White House, and, while serving as Physician to the President: failed to foster and maintain a healthy command climate in the WHMU, and failed to treat DoD subordinates with dignity and respect; engaged in alcohol-related misconduct, including wrecking a government vehicle while intoxicated; expected rum or other alcohol to be stocked in his lodging room while on official travel, or caused staff members to fear retribution if they did not comply with the expectation; and misused Ambien for his personal use.
