On the recordFebruary 24, 2010
Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague on the other side of the aisle. We've heard a variety of reasons and excuses today about why this bill shouldn't pass, whether it was about the committee process or a loophole, debating it back and forth. But the fact is we cannot have meaningful health care reform in this country until we finally decide to put an end to insurance company greed and insurance company monopolies. We must stop companies like Anthem who demand rate increases that are many times the rate of inflation, which puts health care insurance out of reach for many, many Americans. I urge a ``yes'' vote on the previous question and on the rule.
