From my experience, our Federal programs may not be properly incentivizing our States to make the necessary investments in our infrastructure that would help us mitigate the long-term consequences of a disaster.

I also believe it is critical that we make sure people have access to comprehensive coverage and really protect those guardrails in 1332s.

While we all want permitting decisions to occur quickly--God knows I do--the rules and processes we have in place are not always just 'red tape.'

It is important then that the President appoint a skilled and capable permanent Executive Director for the Council who is equipped with the authority necessary to push projects through to completion.

It is critical that the provisions we enact in this area be fully implemented so we can understand the impact that they will have before we look to do a whole lot more.

Lowering health care costs should not mean that patients experience worse outcomes; instead, we should take steps to incentivize value-based care.

If we are approaching $20 trillion, how much more can you generate.

the advance premium tax credits that we would have to pay as opposed to using that money as seed money for reinsurance and bringing down the overall cost I think weighs to the benefit side of the cost-benefit analysis.

People around New Hampshire, when I said we were going to have bipartisan hearings and listen to experts... there was a real sigh of relief.

But it's also that his actions since becoming president and advocating for the repeal of the Affordable Care Act for instance, which would repeal our bipartisan Medicaid expansion program, so critical to treatment in New Hampshire.

And so, I am urging the president to stop just talking about this issue, and actually help us deal with it by helping us get the resources we need to get people into treatment, to get the kind of work force we need.
