Political Quotes

On the recordDecember 11, 2025
I didn't show the poster, but in our proposal taking the 50-year-old couple with 2 kids, 19 and 20, their family would get $5,000 in their account, and the net deductible would be less than the silver plan the Democrats want. And the policy premium would be $6,000 less a year. So if the plan, that my good friend the minority whip is saying is the better plan, has a higher net deductible, that, I don't think, works for the gentleman's knee replacement. And the family $5,000 deductible can be applied, so you would have $5,000 top. I have taken too much time, but thank you for yielding.
