earlier this year, House Republicans passed a bill that strips healthcare from millions of Americans and raises costs for millions more. That was a monstrous bill, but this is a cowardly bill. It does nothing to stop the skyrocketing costs…
We spent an enormous amount of time trying to help people connect to state and local services, whether it’s everything from housing, to getting food, to health care, job search.
The bill before us takes food and drink from the mouths of the poor. It takes healthcare from the sick. A vote for this bill betrays these Gospel teachings, and in our hearts all of us know it.
“Job creation has effectively ground to a halt, and businesses simply are not hiring at the pace a healthy economy demands.”
