The Saver's Credit is a very valuable tool. Six million workers today are getting a benefit.

the risk of an insecure retirement is especially acute for women, for minorities, and for lower-income Americans.

What we need to do, in our mind, or things that we should be looking at, are strengthening Social Security, as has been said, expanding access to low-cost and quality plans, such as the myRA.

I yield myself such time as I may consume. Mr. Speaker, I want to thank Chairman Issa for sponsoring this bill with me. This bill, if enacted, would be a landmark reform of our most important open government law, the Freedom of Information…

Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume, and I am about to close. Again, I want to thank Chairman Issa for his hard work on this. This is so very, very important. I often tell my constituents, Mr. Speaker, that this is our…

This is an equal opportunity epidemic. It hits people at all income levels.

If we can find our path forward, Madam Chairwoman, to that kind of a stable support for medical research in the United States, it would make a huge difference.
