Markwayne Mullin

This is a great opportunity for rural America to have adequate and quality healthcare like all others.

My office has been working on a bill with Chairman Eshoo's office to ensure the Federal Government creates a national telehealth strategy

And while I know this one seems to be focusing on Fox and left outlets, Ms. O'Brien, do you believe that MSNBC and CNN are also guilty of misinformation?

I agree with Markwayne Mullin. Y'all talk about how this thing, you're not trying to politicize it, but you're doing exactly that...

The more we question it, while underneath the disguise of trying to say we are trying to keep the American people safe, the more we could actually cost people's lives.

I had a constituent tell me a couple of weeks ago that says, you know, you can tell when a natural disaster or a national disaster is serious is when Republicans and Democrats are both on the same page; but when we start politicizing it…

I would rather work with DEQ any day of the week than work with the EPA at all.

Don't forget the Obama administration had control of the EPA for eight years, and they still haven't addressed all of these issues.

Yet there is many on this committee that have been on this committee for a decade or decades.

I find it odd that we are holding a committee hearing, and yet a lot of people on this committee haven't even done their research.

IHS must also modernize its IT system and bring it into the 21st Century.

IHS is not only terribly underfunded, but it's also the only federal healthcare agency who doesn't receive mandatory or advanced appropriations.

Natives deserve quality, reliable healthcare services as promised by the federal government.

Native Americans are disproportionately left out on these studies, on things moving forward.

I am Cherokee, Native American, and it is very disappointing to me that we don't have a tribal witness here today.

For a lot of young people, the only opportunity for them to have a really good-paying job is to move.

We are in a pandemic. Let's figure out a way to move the ball forward.

When we start talking about Opportunity Zones, we need to pay attention to that.

I mean, if we are really going to have a hearing that is going to be able to move the ball forward and try to advance opportunities for all of our constituents, then we drag in politics like our colleague from Florida just did, it is…

Preemption is very important. Preemption, as you said, is important. Then it should be part of this bill.

The cost to install these new units is a real cost. And we need to make sure that the consumer is, one, aware of what their choices are, and, two, understand what the cost is to them.

I am not saying that anybody is purposely deceiving or misleading or is for sacrificing a life for a product.

So the point is the refrigerant is priced out. And if you price it out, then you price out the equipment.

What is a life worth to you?

The consumer will be paying that bill, not the manufacturers or the installers.
