Byron Dorgan: “If we're trying to promote economic recovery here, why would we not make the investment here?”

This is not about politics; everyone on this dais knows that.

Although histories, cultures, and languages may be diverse, one theme was always consistent--the challenges of accessing healthcare and life-saving services.

I know that everyone sitting at this table has a passionate desire to fix these problems.

It is a travesty! Further, it is a problem that will continue to have negative impacts for generations to come.
