About Nancy

Nancy Vu is a reporter covering Congress, a role she has held for the last 4 or 5 years. Based in Washington, DC, she reports on bills moving through the floor, political fights among members, and tensions between Congress and the White House. Her coverage has increasingly centered on healthcare policy, examining how public health systems have been reshaped under HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. A typical day involves calling sources, writing news stories, and pursuing members of Congress for information. Previously, she has worked at outlets including Politico and the Washington Examiner, maintaining a consistent focus on Congress across various policy beats. One of her most notable achievements has been leading an investigation into one of President Trump's nominees, highlighting clashes between the nominee's past politics and confirming committee members; the committee incorporated her team's reporting into its process.
