I am a proud cosponsor of 1425. It is probably the single most important thing we can do to help stabilize the individual marketplace.

I am an Article I of the Constitution person at heart. My job is to legislate.

Certainly, I am one of the folks that believe healthcare is a right, not a privilege, in the greatest country in the world.

I will kind of jump on Markwayne's discussion a little bit, because I think there's a lot of misinformation out there over the use of antimicrobials and their contribution to human resistance to drugs.

I am very concerned that in the President's budget, it proposes actually repealing more of the Affordable Care Act, which would cause millions to lose coverage.

I appreciate that, because we would like to work with you or the administration, come up with just a commonsense proposal to fix what needs to be fixed at this point in time so Americans have healthcare.

Very, very concerned that if we double down on that, that would be not good for Americans.

I don't think Americans want to see their health coverage go away.

I think the goal of the Affordable Care Act isn't just to treat conditions and people as they walk in the door but to make a better healthcare system.

Dual eligibles is really the absolute gold standard by which I think healthcare delivery in this country will be judged if we are going to make improvements.

It is really time for Congress to act. Every few months we are seeing headlines about exorbitant price hikes from unscrupulous bad actors like my good friend Gus Bilirakis talked about.

I think everyone should have coverage and that means making it affordable and maybe even giving some people more of a break than some people think they deserve.

I don't think it is astonishing to any of us that access is extremely important to make sure these people who haven't had health care in the greatest country on Earth, and the most industrialized Nation, should at least be able to get a…

I think everyone has responded to the chairman and other people's questions that there is currently no evidence that the genetically modified or genetically engineered crops we have to date cause health and safety problems.

They have denied American farmers, my fellow Oregonians, the very due process our Forefathers built our country on.

You are violating people's due rights. That is not good advertisement for what the United States Government is all about.

I think that your Constitutional rights were violated. I think that you have been treated unfairly.

Illegally employing children or not fully compensating workers for their labor, is not condoned by anybody.

They coerced farmers into forfeiting their rights by threatening their very livelihoods.

In taking the actions it did, DOL ignored its own historical precedent, violated Constitutionally protected due process, and subjected family farms to crushing economic harm in these very tough times.

We the People are being attacked by our own government without due process.

To say I remain troubled regarding how the Department of Labor has pursued the hot goods provision, and its lack of cooperation as we have tried to get a better understanding of the 'whys' and 'hows' is an understatement.

The Department of Labor, as I have said, did not follow any appropriate process as set out by its own rules.

With all due respect, Mr. Bonnie, this is a nightmare. It is probably one of the worst, egregious examples of government overreach I have ever seen in my lifetime.

How can you possibly defend what you are doing here?
