I believe we need to modernize, personalize, and improve healthcare, not let the Government take it over.
The Democrats' bill would cost an estimated $4.3 trillion and, according to the Congressional Budget Office letter received yesterday, this bill would lead to 2.8 million Americans losing their employer-based health insurance.
My colleagues on the other side of the aisle are trying to pass a reckless tax-and-spending spree package that would get the Government more involved in Americans' lives, including their healthcare.
I would see that as a student athlete providing a perfectly good business utilization as you would with anybody else who is promoting your particular product or restaurant.
But doesn't that just open you up to--let's say Western Kentucky says, you know, 'I gave you $500,000 last year...'
My father cannot hug me anymore, but I am here because I want to make sure no other little girl goes through what I am going through.
Thank you, Madam Chair, for the recognition, and the first question is for Dr. Koroshetz and Dr. Hodes.
I support the bipartisan alternative, Lower Cost and More Cures Act, to reduce drug prices and protect innovative cures.
I want to recognize and thank Kala Booth, who is here today to testify on her experience with Huntington's disease.
If my colleagues do not force Medicare for All on Americans and take away this choice for the nearly 29 million beneficiaries.
Medicare Advantage has demonstrated how successful private insurance plans can be if given the proper flexibilities.
I look forward to having a productive discussion today on how to have better healthcare data and address social determinants of health.
I support Dr. Burgess' bill, the Social Determinants of Health Data Analysis Act, which would require GAO to report on the actions taken by the Secretary of HHS to address social determinants of health.
I encourage my colleagues to vote for this bill. I think it is a good bill, and I yield back the balance of my time.
We must continue to be a leader in medical innovation and encourage the development of new treatments and cures in our great country.
These behaviors have resulted in the EU being way behind the U.S. in distributing COVID-19 vaccines to their citizens.
The Democrat bill, H.R. 3 would disincentivize further development of vaccines and hinder development of lifesaving drugs.
Let me be clear, I support efforts to give every American the opportunity to be vaccinated for COVID-19 and any other vaccine preventable disease where vaccination is recommended.
I strongly disagreed with this legislation because it was mostly used as a trojan horse for progressive polices and only 9% of the funding went directly to fighting COVID-19.
We must continue to be a leader of medical innovation and encourage the development of new treatments and cures in our great country.
I have supported much-needed relief for American families, workers, and small businesses, but we must ensure it is being used effectively and wisely.
