We recommend that the committee incentivize primary care to adopt and implement the Collaborative Care Model.

We thank you for your leadership in introducing S. 923, the Better Mental Health Care for Americans Act.

Frankly, I think the American public is appalled that they are looking at CEOs of Silicon Valley Bank getting $10 million, walking out with even more in terms of stock, and nothing can be done.

I think the way out of most of those problems is comprehensive payment reform.

House Republicans have armed the default hand grenade, and pulled the pin, and have it in their hands, threatening to blow it up with all of the consequences that each of you have forecast, and the question is for whom?

There is an enormous burden of unnecessary administrative cost from that.

if this default is provoked by what looks like a desperate last attack on clean energy competition by a massive polluting, and heavily political industry, that will come back to them.

Madam President, it is a very happy coincidence for me that I get to follow my friend Senator Schatz on this topic to oppose the solar tariff Congressional Review Act effort that has been mounted on the floor because I could not agree more…

My preferred policy is a border adjusted carbon tax that creates incentives to account for the costs for energy use.

It would be fair to describe that as crashing the American solar industry.

Make no mistake, it doesn't matter who you vote for, what state you live in, or what you make. If House Republicans get their way it is going to make your life worse.

We recommend that the committee advance this legislation expeditiously.

If we end up going into this Republican threatened default, and all the pain and calamity that all of the witnesses have forecast comes to pass, people in America are going to want to know who is responsible.

It has been extremely important for people who are in recovery to be able to talk to their peer recovery coaches and to the people who are providing them treatment.

What is in plain view in the House Default on America Act is 275 out of 315 pages that are giveaways to the fossil fuel industry.

my hard earned experience tells me that when the Republican Party acts on pollution related and corruption related issues, the Party acts as the glove for fossil fuels dark hand.

For the record, the MAGA extremists in the House who were essential to McCarthy's speakership have said that nothing less than the Default on America Option will pass.

We thank you for your leadership in introducing S. 923, the Better Mental Health Care for Americans Act.
