Political Quotes

“Health care costs are unsustainable. They are bankrupting families. They are bankrupting small businesses, and if they are not reformed, they will bankrupt our government. No one denies we need reform, but what Americans do not want is for D.C. politicians to centralize health care decisions in Washington and create another entitlement program when everyone knows we haven't paid for the entitlements we already have. Instead, what Americans need are reforms that actually reduce health care costs for families, help folks with preexisting conditions, and make it easier for small businesses to provide health care. The American people have rejected a government takeover of health care. So I urge my colleagues to support commonsense plans to fix what's broken without throwing out the rule book and without destroying what works for millions.”
