It is just unconscionable that this epidemic of violence goes on and on and on and on, and policymakers in Washington, DC sit on their hands and do nothing about it.

I just want to make a unanimous consent request to add section 4111 of Chairman Enzi's budget mark.

It was almost like this administration was comatose for Reagan trickle-down economics.

Business tax cuts primarily benefit those at the top of the income distribution.

Trickle-down economics are pretty much a fantasy.

International tax reform is an area that is rife for bipartisanship if we are willing to work together on goals that members from both parties share.

I want to forcefully request that the Graham-Cassidy-Heller-Johnson proposal be shelved and not brought forward for debate or vote.

This legislation would be devastating to the over 3 million people in Ohio served by Medicaid

NARAL Pro-Choice America strongly opposes the Graham-Cassidy-Heller-Johnson proposal.

BIAA is strongly opposed to H.R. 1628, the Graham-Cassidy-Heller-Johnson proposal.

We respectfully invoke our right, under Senate Rule XXVI, for a majority of the minority members of the Finance Committee to call for an additional day of hearings with respect to the Graham-Cassidy proposal.

This proposal is about as popular as prolonged root canal work.

Nobody has to buy a lemon just because it's the last car on the lot. The Graham-Cassidy bill is a health-care lemon; a disaster in the making.

This bill's sponsors aren't even waiting for the official facts and figures from the independent scorekeepers.

It's bad policy to take health coverage away from tens of millions of Americans and raise costs for virtually everybody else.

The process that has brought Graham-Cassidy to the brink of passage would be laughable if the well-being of tens of millions of Americans wasn't hanging in the balance.

Proposals like Graham-Cassidy to cap Medicaid would dramatically reduce Federal funding for the program.

We are committed to working with our colleagues in both the Senate and the House to act in swift order...

The real flexibility created by this bill is the option for States to do worse.

I want to blow the whistle on a few key points right at the outset of today's hearing. First off, the American people do not want this bill.

The Graham-Cassidy bill would radically reshape the American health-care system.

The ironclad, loophole-free, guaranteed protection for those with pre-existing conditions under the Affordable Care Act will be gone.

The heart of this bill is a scheme that punishes States that have worked hard to build strong private markets.

The fact that it's the last Republican repeal plan standing doesn't make it acceptable. It'll be a nightmare for tens of millions of Americans.

I really look forward to killing this flawed bill and then going back to kind of positive work...
