I thank the Senator from Washington State who was for care coordination, moving away from fee-for-service, using bargaining power, locally driven approaches long before it really became a buzzword in American healthcare. I thank her very…

I thank my friend. Would my friend like to add anything else or should we yield to Senator Cantwell?

The Senator, as a Governor, really has helped educate me over the years on this whole question of the States being ``laboratories of democracy'' and trying fresh approaches. Delaware has done that and Oregon has done that. I ask the…
