“We are trying to turn back the sabotage of the Trump administration on people's healthcare for the folks back home who we represent. The Trump administration has done everything they can to make it more expensive, whether we are talking about prescription drugs or that all-important health insurance policy. Don't just take it from me and my Democratic colleagues. Take it from folks who are on the side of our families day in and day out: the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network, the American Diabetes Association, the American Heart Association, and the American Lung Association. I could go on and on. Mr. Chair, I include in the Record letters from over 20 health groups that represent our families back home who say: Pass this bill. May 15, 2019. Hon. Kathy Castor, House of Representatives, Washington, DC. Dear Representative Castor: The 23 undersigned organizations, representing millions of American patients, providers, and consumers, write today in strong support of H.R. 1010, To provide that the rule entitled ``Short-Term, Limited Duration Insurance ``shall have no force or effect,'' which is now included in H.R. 987. Our organizations strongly support providing protections for patients from short-term, limited-duration (STLDI or short-term) plans and support preventing action on implementing or enforcing the ``Short- Term, Limited-Duration Insurance'' final rule (83 FR 38212, published August 3, 2018).…”
