“Isn't it interesting that no matter what happens, there are always excuses that we cannot pass a Patients' Bill of Rights? This has been going on for 5 years. We now have a bipartisan piece of legislation. I acknowledge the first legislation that came out was partisan, just the Democrats authored it, even though some Republicans supported it. Now we have bipartisan legislation. Senators McCain, Kennedy, and Edwards have written this legislation. They are the chief sponsors of it. But now it is still not good enough. Have we not heard in the 5 years we have already spent on this legislation about States rights? I ask the Senator from Massachusetts, do you not think we resolve these States rights problems with this legislation?”
