Basically, just to underline your point, that means we do not need the complexity in the system.

That's a good step. They need more money.

a new baby should be a cause for celebration, not a path to poverty.

I do hope that Massachusetts succeeds and joins actually Senator Murphy's great State of Connecticut in becoming the second State to offer paid sick days to workers.

It is powerfully important here.

That is the promise of Medicare, and if we are letting some of our seniors down, then we need to fix it.

Paid family leave policies are in place for, again, sort of serious health conditions, new babies, in three States, California, New Jersey, and Rhode Island.

This is a serious problem and it is a problem that is getting worse.

I see that as a good start, but we also recognize that some seniors still need skilled nursing facilities without spending any time in the hospital.

We understand we do not want to have over-utilization. We want to get appropriate utilization.

I do not want this to be, 'and then a miracle occurred.'
