I thank the gentlewoman for her insight into the way in which the bill affects her home and her community because that's what all this is about; it's really about the community. Mr. Pallone, if you would like to take a few moments and…

Some of this, if I might for a moment, sir, already exists. I've been with Kaiser for three decades. They have put all of the records, all of my history, all of their patients, millions of patients, on the electronic information system. I…
You raised another point. And I recall a conversation with Mr. Cohen in the past where we talked about medical technology, which is also not only in the Affordable Health Care Act, the health care reform, but also in the stimulus bill. And…
That has not been discussed. In every part of America, people need to know about the enormous increase in the community clinics that will be available. That's in the legislation. It costs money, but it saves money because, once again…
Let's just continue on here. We talked about prescription drugs. It's not only the doughnut hole, but there are certain kinds of generic prescription drugs that would also benefit as a result of this legislation and, of course, the…

That is similar in every district, Republican or Democrat, across the Nation. The number of small businesses may vary district to district, but the point is that every small business has an opportunity to reduce by more than one-third the…
Madam Speaker, this is the most remarkable of all Chambers where discussions take place, because in this Chamber if you say something that is not true, often enough somebody will believe that it's actually true. What I have heard today on…
Well, I will do my best, and along the way, if my colleagues would join in on any one of these issues, I'd appreciate it. Health care reform means security and stability for America's seniors. First of all, despite all the rhetoric on the…
