Gene Green: “I think they're measuring right now.”

I'm happy to once again support my colleague Mr. Engel's bill, to rein in this dangerous practice.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports that more than 700 women in the United States die each year due to complications related to pregnancy and childbirth.

Neither these bills nor the Committee's other efforts have gone far enough to address many of the underlying challenges facing this sector.

I hope that we can advance this legislation as well.
