Political Quotes

I am grateful for the opportunity to speak to the Members of the House. As a dentist, I have a firsthand understanding of the American healthcare system and the need to make it both accessible and affordable. I have seen the high costs of healthcare and how they can be devastating to those who suffer a health emergency. Additionally, those with preexisting conditions should not feel under the constant threat of losing or not being able to obtain coverage. We must protect our families and our small businesses, including those with preexisting conditions, and work to lower the high cost of healthcare and prescription drugs. Individuals and families lose their homes and their vehicles--literally, their entire way of life--due to the high cost of healthcare and prescription drugs. This week, we voted to lower prescription prices and to protect those with preexisting conditions. We must continue to work together right here in the House in a bipartisan way to do what is right and to make healthcare more accessible for all of the American people. ____________________
