We are not going to stop until we learn the whole truth.

Who initiated the targeting of conservative organizations for extra scrutiny based on their political beliefs?

This report is a sham. I would call it a whitewash, but it is too thin and unsubstantial to even meet that description.

We need real reforms, and they must be implemented so the American people can have a restored faith that they have a government that works for them, not against them.

Your job isn't to cover up, it is to open up this agency.

Chairman Johnson, thank you for your leadership on this issue and, Mr. Doggett, for your eloquent support. When American families are fortunate enough to have children, they often face an important decision: Can they afford to have one…

I challenge my colleagues to think bigger. Let's figure out how to ensure Medicare is an efficient program that provides a quality benefit to those who rely on it.

I hope we heed your warning to act sooner rather than later to take the meaningful steps to save and extend the life of Medicare.

Medicare is important, it is in trouble, common sense dictates that we act now.

The conclusions of the Medicare trustees are deeply troubling and should serve as a call to action for those who want to save Medicare.

If Medicare is just fine, as some claim, then why the Medicare trustees issue and Medicare funding warning for the seventh straight year?

Today no Member of Congress can honestly look a 52-year-old American in the eye and assure them that Medicare will be there for them when they retire because the trustees report has just confirmed that.

While Medicare's Hospital Insurance Trust Fund has been given a brief 2 year reprieve before going bankrupt, that doesn't mean Congress has two more years to act.

And if sincere concerns about Medicare's financial condition are summarily dismissed as alarmist rhetoric by some Members of Congress, then why can't Medicare pay its medical bills for seniors in just 13 short years?

We can't wish this problem away. Medicare is going broke too quickly.

The simple truth is that Medicare remains in deep financial trouble and the time to act is now.

the 2013 trustees report continues to make it abundantly clear that Medicare's financial future is in trouble.

Is this still America? Is this government so drunk on power that it would turn its full force, its full might to harass and intimidate and threaten an average American who only wants her voice and their voices heard?

The new Medicare Trustees report confirms this important program remains in deep financial trouble, with only 13 years left of solvency in the main trust fund. Democrats and Republicans recognize one solution to extending the life of…

Chairman Kevin Brady (R-TX) today announced the fourth in a series of hearings to explore bipartisan proposals.

To me, 2 years is equivalent to the Titanic hitting the iceberg an hour later.

We don't need hyperbolic statements to motivate to us action.

Medicare's finances are strong.

There is no simple fix to the question of increasing health care.

The testimony clearly reveals the need to fix this broken Tax Code and make America far more competitive.
