Debbie Stabenow

While there are a lot of things that folks want to talk negatively about in the Affordable Care Act, because we have the Affordable Care Act, there are no more preexisting conditions.

When you work with Senator Isakson on health reform, you are running with the right crowd.

There are no annual or lifetime limits on the number of treatments that you can receive.

The number-one cause of death of women in this country is heart disease.

Nothing beats people having enough information.

I am shocked to hear that all of that is not being made available.

The best investment we all can make... is education.

The fastest way we could help right now is to lower the student loan interest rate.

It is our job to make sure you get a fair shot to make it.

Thank you very much, Madam Chair, for your incredible leadership.

These trends are not just a threat to the health of America's young people, they are a threat to the future of our national security.

If there is no further business to come before the Senate, I ask unanimous consent that it adjourn under the previous order. There being no objection, the Senate, at 6:29 p.m., adjourned until Wednesday, June 4, 2014, at 9:30 a.m…

There will be four rollcall votes at 11 a.m. tomorrow on confirmation of three district judges and cloture on the Burwell nomination. ____________________

I know things are--the President is focusing on the brain research effort, and so on.

One out of every 5 Medicare dollars--that is a lot, $1 out of 5 Medicare dollars--is spent on someone with Alzheimer's.

I strongly support all of our nominees and welcome you to the committee.

Getting this implemented in its entirety is the top priority for me and for all of our Committee doing this the right way under the legislative intent of the Farm Bill obviously is something we are committed to.

I just want to associate myself with Senator Grassley and I believe we have given you authority to address abuses and am confident that you will be able to proceed to do that.

I would ask you to wrap up, Senator Grassley.

I think this is really important in terms of, as you said, jobs and the economy.

Another priority in the Farm Bill that I mentioned was in the Energy Title focusing on bio-based manufacturing.

Thank you very much. It is easy to see that you are moving on all fronts, and we greatly appreciate that.

It did require bipartisan support, and I think it represents the best of the kind of work that can occur in this democracy.

It sent, I think, a message of hope throughout the countryside and obviously would not have happened without the great work of this Committee and without your leadership.

When you say things are getting better, come to Michigan. We have several missing persons reports of people who found the potholes.
