Thomas Daschle: “It seems to me to make a lot of sense that there should be a Federal health board that has some oversight…”

Senator Tom Daschle recently said he thinks Members of the Senate spend more time fundraising than they do working in Congress.

It will use Social Security and Medicare surpluses. It will create the same deficit situation, I promise you, as we have seen all through the 1980s and early `90s.

Federal action to establish a mandatory program to limit greenhouse gas emissions is sensible and will provide agricultural producers with significant new market opportunities.

This is something that really does deserve a framework, a national framework.
