Mr. TAKANO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to speak about the benefits of ObamaCare.
Dennis Denbo, a 63-year-old constituent of mine, spoke to our local newspaper, the Press-Enterprise, to share his story.
Mr. Denbo, who was laid off recently from his computer sales job, went to the Covered California Web site and found that he and his wife Jean will save $300 a month on a plan comparable to what they have now.
A few weeks ago, Mr. Denbo wrote to my office to tell me personally about his experience and how deeply he believes in America's ability to achieve great things.
In his letter he said:
We are Americans. We can solve whatever issues or tactical challenges that come up in the implementation of a nationwide health care solution. We can make it efficient, cost-effective, accessible, and a valuable service for all Americans.
I couldn't agree more, Mr. Denbo.
The benefits of ObamaCare are real. This body should be concerned with finding ways to improve access to affordable health care instead of delaying and defunding.
