Senator Murray Responds to Former Health Secretary's Admission that Republican Health Care Sabotage Will Raise Costs

Statement

Today, Senator Patty Murray (D-WA), ranking member of the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP) Committee, released the following statement in response to comments from former Secretary of Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Tom Price admitting that Republican's health care sabotage efforts would leave families facing higher costs.

"I'm glad to see former Secretary Price admit the truth, which is that families' premiums are going up because President Trump and Republicans in Congress have spiked prices with their relentless, partisan health care sabotage. People across the country are unfortunately going to start seeing higher rates being filed as soon as this week, and former Secretary Price's comments make it absolutely clear who families should hold accountable--President Trump and Congressional Republicans."
