Ron Wyden Zitate

Since 1994, lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have considered it politically risky to offer a plan to fix America's broken health care system. The American public, though, has paid the price for this silence as health care costs skyrocketed, millions went uninsured, and millions more grappled with financial insecurity and hardship.

Seit 1994 halten es die Gesetzgeber auf beiden Seiten des Gangs für politisch riskant, einen Plan zur Behebung des kaputten Gesundheitssystems in Amerika anzubieten. Die amerikanische Öffentlichkeit hat jedoch den Preis für dieses Schweigen gezahlt, als die Gesundheitskosten in die Höhe schossen, Millionen nicht versichert waren und sich Millionen mit finanzieller Unsicherheit und Not beschäftigten.

The majority of Americans receive health insurance coverage through their employers, but with rising health care costs, many small businesses can no longer afford to provide coverage for their employees.

Our health care system is the finest in the world, but we still have too many uninsured Americans, too high prices for prescription drugs, and too many frivolous lawsuits driving our physicians out of state or out of business.

In the past week it has become clear that the vote on the final healthcare bill will be very close. I take this vote with the utmost seriousness. I am quite aware of the historic fight that has lasted the better part of the last century to bring America in line with other modern democracies in providing single payer health care.

We need legislation that encourages increased competition and tort reform and combats fraud, waste, and abuse. This would drive down health care costs, provide more 'bottom line' for our small businesses and lead to more private sector job growth.
