On the recordOctober 31, 2001
I thank Senator Specter for his leadership and courtesy in allowing me to present this amendment which I believe is exceedingly important to health care in America. It is a problem with which we simply have to deal. It affects hospitals all over America, causing the richer hospitals to get richer and the poorer hospitals to get poorer. The problem is the wage index. I offer the Wage Index Fairness Act, and I send the amendment to the desk.
