AMENDING SECTION 340E OF PUBLIC HEALTH SERVICE ACT RELATING TO CHILDREN'S HOSPITALS -- (House of Representatives - October 06, 2004)

(BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT)

Mr. DAVIS of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, I rise in strong support of H.R. 5204 and commend the gentlewoman from California (Ms. Eshoo) for her sponsorship of this legislation.

I represent a congressional district that has five medical schools and 28 hospitals, including Children's Memorial in Chicago, which is one of the best in the Nation. This legislation is going to be very helpful to several of these institutions.

I simply rise in strong support of this legislation, urge passage, and commend again the leadership of this subcommittee for its tremendous activity related to health care and the health care needs of people in these United States of America.
