"Health insurance monopolies should not be making health care decisions for patients--and for doctors."

"I thank you both, and we are not beating a hasty departure based on your testimony, but based on the fact we have run out of time on the vote on the floor."

"I am glad to see the administration taking antitrust enforcement so seriously."

"the insurance industry's exemption from the Federal antitrust laws... has served the financial interests of the insurance industry, but I do not see where it has helped the consumers at all."
