this whole idea that's being brought up today that somehow, you know, policies are being canceled, and people don't have alternatives, it's just another red herring.

I think we need the whole team to move ahead.

They said tens of millions will lose their insurance, but, in fact, everybody in this country is going to have access to health insurance.

They said that the costs for health care would skyrocket, and, in fact, the opposite is true.

I just want to join you in simply explaining that swearing in of a witness before an oversight committee hearing has always been under oath.

Well, now they're going to have this health security.

So the Affordable Care Act, we're going to end the worst abuses of insurance companies...

They said it would explode the deficit, and yet all the reputable organizations... have told us that it's going to save us $100 billion over 10 years.

They said there would be a massive shift to part-time jobs, and the evidence doesn't support that.

Sixty percent of the uninsured individuals shopping in the new marketplaces will be able to get coverage for less than $100 per month.

Never again will a family be denied coverage because their child has a chronic health condition.

The Affordable Care Act is working. It has been improving the health security of millions of Americans for the past 3 years.

Let's do something constructive, not just negative attacks against a bill that I think is going to be a Godsend for millions of Americans.

I was one of those who thought it was a good idea as a part of a proposal that was floating around the halls here in Congress that the President and the cabinet secretaries ought to also be in the marketplace and not have a special Federal…

If we don't enforce this policy, insurance companies can continue offering flimsy coverage that disappears when people actually need it.

It seems like most of the recent projects in California have been paid for by local State bonds and other financing mechanisms, not necessarily Federal.

It is ironic: Today is the 1-year anniversary of Hurricane Sandy, a terrible tragedy...

the consequences of our inaction will be far more severe.
