On the recordMarch 16, 2010
At least 46 million Americans are now uninsured; 7.7 million in California are uninsured, and at least 80,000 are uninsured in the Sixth Congressional District, which is the district I represent. By the end of the day, 14,000 more Americans will lose their coverage, more than 2,000 of them in California. Without health care reform, the average family premium in California will rise from $13,280 to $22,660 by the year 2019. That's why we must pass the health care reform bill that brings down costs and increases competition. The Senate bill, with the corrections, including better subsidies and insurance market reforms, will be the beginning of this. We must pass health reform so that our Nation's families have access to affordable, quality health insurance.
