Today, I, along with Senators LeMieux, DeMint, and Inhofe, am introducing the FAST Act. What the FAST Act does is attack the $100 billion worth of waste and fraud in Medicare, Medicaid, and SCHIP. The status quo in Medicaid and Medicare is unsustainable and unacceptable. American taxpayers lose $60 to $100 billion in waste, fraud, and abuse in Medicare and Medicaid each year.
Senator Coburn is introducing the FAST Act to address waste and fraud in Medicare and Medicaid.

I just do not think it works. And I want to be humane. We have a moral obligation to the least of these, folks who do not have a place to live, but there has got to be a better way to do this.
We have a very serious problem from the point of view of deterring particularly a country such as Iran or North Korea.
