Senator Warren Statement on Steward CEO Ralph de la Torre Refusal to Comply with Subpoena

Washington, D.C. – U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) issued the following statement in response to Steward CEO Ralph de la Torre’s refusal to comply with a congressional subpoena this morning:

“Ralph de la Torre is just one more rich guy who thinks he’s above the law. After driving Steward’s hospitals into bankruptcy while living large at patients’ expense, Dr. de la Torre is pulling out all the stops to weasel out of accountability. A congressional subpoena is a legal order, not an optional invite. Dr. de la Torre must be held in contempt of Congress for his refusal to show up, and held accountable for the damage he’s done to patients, workers, and communities in Massachusetts and across the country.”
