"This is a really important day and marks an important step for the committee's work to examine legislation that really strengthens our healthcare safety net by extending these critical programs."

"These programs, which have long enjoyed strong bipartisan support, include Community Health Centers, Teaching Health Centers, the National Health Service Corps, and the Special Diabetes Programs."

"We, obviously, will work together as we have to avoid unnecessary shutdown of these programs in September when their authorizations expire."

"I think we can all agree Republicans and Democrats should be able to come together and work in good faith to do this and make America stronger and better."
