I am very concerned about this, because we have got to do everything we can for these patients to get good healthcare coverage.

an ounce of prevention is worth many, many, many pounds of cure.

Through my experience as a nurse, I recognize and have witnessed the serious implications that stem from eating disorders.

Focus on prevention.

Education is a critical first step, if we hope to prevent, identify, manage, and intervene on behalf of the struggling adolescent.

I was proud to work with my colleagues on that landmark initiative in order to reduce regulation, inspire innovation, improve outcomes for patients and move our country towards precision medicine.

While I generally support the bills under consideration today by the Subcommittee aimed at improving Medicaid patient access to care, I very much believe there is a missing component in this discussion.

Congresswoman DeGette and I have been working on a bipartisan bill to improve Medicaid access to care and improve quality outcomes when it comes to medically necessary foot and ankle care.

These disturbing revelations point to a real policy need to address the holes in this vital safety net program and facilitate improvements to care among our nation's most vulnerable.

States should be permitted to withdraw or deny Medicaid funding to individuals and entities that violate the letter and spirit of the widely supported laws against infanticide.

Democrats have argued that the bills before us today and the bills on the floor would harm women's access to health care. This is false.

I agree. As difficult as it is to watch the videos... it is chilling to me, and it truly is sickening.

This standard of the level at the near national background as is currently being considered will potentially limit military expansion and place at risk our military readiness.

So the Supreme Court told you that economic development is not significant and should not be considered.

this rule will kill over 13,000 jobs a year and decrease the state's GDP drastically at a time when we can afford it the least.

If a manufacturer simply cannot meet these standards, what are their options? Are they to buy expensive offsets? Are they to close their doors?

A more secure, reliable, and resilient grid is a matter of national security, and I am pleased to see the leadership of this committee on this matter.

I believe it is more important than ever that the United States maintain the military superiority and continue to be the dominant force in freedom in the world.

This is obviously going to negatively impact the consumers and their utility bills.

I understand and appreciate the importance of the 340B Program and the critical role it plays for many patients in the U.S.

I just believe that when we are talking about energy, and long-term energy policy for our future of this country, we have the grid technology as a part of that conversation.

It makes absolutely no sense. You are talking about logic and facts, and unfortunately, many times those things do not fit into what we do here.

I just hope that we can all come together to work on a solution moving forward so that we can continue to provide great health care to every American.

I thank the chairman for this very important discussion that we are having today. Yes, I rise in support of H.R. 596, which aims to repeal the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, otherwise known as ObamaCare. ObamaCare has been a…
