The Graham-Cassidy bill is the worst version of TrumpCare yet. By block granting healthcare, this bill puts healthcare on the chopping block. In order to make ends meet, States will have to change their eligibility criteria, meaning…

With all the political rhetoric, the finger- pointing, and the many versions of TrumpCare, hyperpartisan politicians often forget what this debate is all about. It is about people, about relieving a person's pain and suffering, about…

Our constituents sent us here to discuss our differences honestly and openly and come together to pass bipartisan legislation addressing our Nation's most pressing issues. Every year I have been in Congress, I have voted in favor of…

This is obviously a critical program not only for the people and families I represent but millions of Americas who still lack access to broadband.

I firmly believe that we need to see real progress, real change, and we are going to need to improve the diversity of those decision makers at the top.

H.R. 849, the Protecting Seniors' Access to Medicare Act, which repeals the Independent Payment Advisory Board, or IPAB, is a terrific example of both sides working together to make commonsense changes to help patients and to help seniors.

We need to rein in our out-of-control healthcare cost, no doubt about it. This is the primary reason why premiums, health insurances are going up.

Again, this bill today is a good bipartisan effort to put seniors above partisanship and solutions above ideology.

I appreciate Dr. Roe's leadership on this issue. It has been an honor to work with him on this important legislation, which will help protect seniors' access to Medicare.

The new American Health Care Act CBO score released yesterday reinforces that this bill is devastating to the American people: 14 million more will be uninsured within just one year, and 23 million more will be uninsured over a decade…

This bill is worse than a sham. This bill is worse than a sugar pill. This bill is downright ugly. It is poison. As an emergency medicine doctor, I urge you to do no harm. I urge everybody to do no harm. Let's be clear: a vote for this…

With TrumpCare 2.0, Republican leaders took a bad bill and made it worse. On top of causing at least 24 million more Americans to be uninsured, raising costs for middle class families, imposing an age tax on older Americans, and making…
