You, Mr. President, and your Republican colleagues will be held accountable.

How pathetic is that for a president of the United States to say?

I believe we should move towards a Medicare for all single payer programs like every other major country guaranteeing health care to all people.

You can't write a bill behind closed doors without any public hearings and without any serious debate.

This is not what Bernie Sanders said, Anderson. This is what study after study has shown. ... what study after study shows, is that many, many thousands of people will die.

What Trump thinks is a great step forward is part of his belief that we should throw 22 million people off of health insurance, raise premiums for all the workers and cut Medicaid by $800 billion. That's not what the American people think…

One of the studies my office cited was published on June 22, 2017, by the Center for American Progress. It was coauthored by a Harvard professor of social epidemiology, two medical students who graduated from Harvard's T.H. Chan School of…

I do not know--and I don't know if anyone knows--whether the Republican so-called healthcare legislation will pass tomorrow, whether the beginning of the debate will take place or whether it will not. I don't know that, but this I do know…

Last I heard the President was a Republican, the Republicans had majority in the House and Senate. They control the United States government.

The last poll that I saw on the Republican proposal had the support of 12 percent of the American people.

The answer is absolutely. And that is why there are many of us who are talking about ways that we can significantly improve the Affordable Care Act.

Well, I think it's really beyond belief that we have a President of the United States who is working over time to sabotage the healthcare that millions of Americans receive.

I wanted to say a few words about the new Republican healthcare plan that was just announced a few hours ago. While there are some modest changes in it, the truth of the matter is that this plan remains a disaster. It remains an…

let me be as clear as I can be. The so- called healthcare bill that passed in the House of Representatives several months ago, strongly supported by President Trump, is the most anti-working-class legislation that I have ever seen. The…

Our job is to strengthen the VA, to make it the best that it can, and where appropriate, to make sure that people do have the opportunity to go outside of the VA.

We want to maintain the strength of the VA, and what we do not want to do is, piece by piece, dismantle the VA.

The VA is not perfect. The VA has problems.

The veterans organizations want to see the VA strengthened.

I think there are folks who spend hundreds of millions of dollars in the political process who want to do just that.

I will not allow the VA to be dismembered.

We do not want to see our veterans overmedicated.

today's Congressional Budget Office analysis of the Trump-McConnell healthcare bill gives us 22 million reasons why this legislation should not see the light of day. What CBO tells us in truth is that this bill really has nothing to do…

this issue is really not just about healthcare. This is a profound moral debate defining who we are as a people today and whom we want to be as a people in the future. A great nation is not simply one judged by how many millionaires and…

The American people are saying, 'Enough is enough. We need to create an economy that works for all of us, not just the people on top.

The Democratic brand is pretty bad.
