President Obama's tax hike rhetoric doesn't add up and neither does his math.

It is clear this Administration is not serious when it comes to Social Security.

The first rule when you are in a hole is to stop digging.

the fraud and erroneous payments rate at Medicare is 12.7 percent. I mean this is a shocking figure.

22 percent of health care fraud cases ultimately prosecuted by the Federal Government could have been prevented by use of a smart card.

Today I rise in support of H.R. 5273, the Helping Hospitals Improve Patient Care Act, or ``HIP-C'' Act. This bill truly represents a bipartisan effort, and I want to thank the distinguished gentleman from Washington State (Mr. McDermott)…

Patient care is not a partisan issue, and I urge all of my colleagues on this Committee to cosponsor this non-partisan, no-cost policy.

To tell you a little bit about some of the hospital networks in my State of Ohio. Mr. Renacci talked about some in northeastern Ohio that support this legislation. Let me just name a few hospitals in my State of Ohio that are supportive of…

Let me just close by saying thank you to Dr. McDermott. It has been enjoyable to work with his team, led by Amy, and we appreciate the bipartisanship. You mentioned all those names--stole my thunder--Emily and her team, and my staff…

I want to thank Chairman Miller and his committee members for supporting my bill, H.R. 960, to designate the VA community-based outpatient clinic in Newark, Ohio, as the Daniel L. Kinnard VA Clinic. Born in Knox County and a resident of…

I have looked people in the eye... who have been provided all sorts of opportunity and have this glazed look in their eye because they are trapped in poverty.

Today's hearing is about how we get families, individuals off of the social safety net into the workforce.

But trying to think outside of the box is not mean and disgraceful, it is trying to figure out what works.

Last month our committee started a robust conversation about how we can modernize the Tax Code to deliver the high-quality, affordable, portable health care options Americans deserve and expect.

We need bold, forward-thinking solutions to ensure our Tax Code promotes the high-quality, patient-centered health care options Americans want and they need.

We owe it to the tribes to provide them with certainty they need to provide for the general welfare and opportunity of their members and exempt them from the employer mandate.

My bill, H.R. 3590, the Halt Tax Increases on the Middle Class and Seniors Act, protects seniors from this tax hike and rolls it back for middle-class families.

The passage of MACRA last year confirmed our commitment on both sides of the aisle to keep Medicare strong for America's seniors.

I continue to run into people who have not gotten to keep what they had and are paying more and getting less.

I am for universal health care, and in fact, in my state--it is probably different in Michigan--we expanded Medicaid.

She cannot wait another ten years. She needs this fixed now.

there aren't any more important issues than the future solvency of the Medicare program and access to good quality healthcare

We are holding this hearing today because we have to face the facts, and in July the Medicare trustees released a report indicating Medicare would be insolvent within 15 years if no action was taken to fix the problem.

I do not accept the often-mentioned assertion that we have entered a new normal of slower economic growth.

Clearly this path is unsustainable.
