"the Republican plan for Medicare is so destructive it would actually end Medicare's guaranteed hospital benefit."

"But a lot of my concern is that it is very much like the BRAC, which I think is a disaster."

"I think we have been very effective. I don't see any need to change MedPAC."

"I think it is a usurpation of, you know, congressional authority and, you know, I have never been in favor."
