Joseph Pitts actually said...

"Health care is the most personal of any political issue. When Congress gets involved in health policy, we are changing people's lives."

"The first thing health reform should accomplish is to stabilize or reduce the cost of health care."

"So it is your view that giving states flexibility on grace periods and age bands, while tightening the special enrollment periods, could lead to lower costs for families?"

"More government bureaucracy, regulations, and spending never successfully reduce the price of health care."
