Congressman Doggett Statement On Long-Overdue Passage Of Health Insurance Reform
Statement
Issues: Health and Health Care
Everyone has their own personal story or that of a friend or family member that underscores the cruelty of not already having greater health insurance coverage at an affordable cost. With this historic reform, that I rose to speak in favor of, every insured American gets valuable consumer protections, and every uninsured American can become insured. 32 million American citizens gain protection from health care bankruptcy. This bill restrains soaring insurance premiums, reduces federal deficits, and strengthens Medicare for our seniors. Together, we must keep working to better meet the healthcare needs of Central Texas families.
