This is the first hearing the U.S. Congress has held on surprise billing, and I am proud that our subcommittee is taking the lead on this important issue.

In April 2019, U.S. Congresswomen Donna Shalala and Frederica Wilson held a Congressional Roundtable at the Miami airport to hear directly from workers.

It seems straightforward that the best way to reverse the downward trend would be through increased transparency.

Congress must act now to stop violations of workers' rights and reverse decades of wage stagnation and income inequality.

America's unions are engines of economic mobility. For generations, they have fueled our Nation's prosperity, protected the health and safety of American workers, and supported a strong middle class.

Wages are rising, unemployment is at near-record lows, and millions of jobs have been created since President Trump took office.

American workers have greater opportunities today than they have in decades.

If Congress is truly on the side of American workers, then we must protect their right to bargain for better wages and better working conditions.
