Press Release
Today, 217 House Republicans voted to take health coverage away from 24 million Americans.
“I am Democratic Whip Steny Hoyer and I don’t write the songs but I count the votes. And every Democrat today in the House of Representatives an hour from now, or when that vote occurs is going to be a no vote to undermine our coverage.
Mr. Speaker, Republicans now control all of our government. Whatever happens to our health care system will be their responsibility.
Well, I don't know if they have the votes because I’m not counting Republican votes, per se.
Republicans now control all the levers of our government. They will be held responsible for whatever happens to our health care system, including the actions that have already destabilized our health insurance markets since January.
Today's visit by Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas must not be seen as a wasted opportunity.
The decision today by Puerto Rico’s governor to seek a judicial reorganization of the island’s debts and put its finances on solid footing is the responsible thing to do.
Joe, you took the words out of my mouth. I don't think it's what the Democrats or Republicans want, the process won.
The bill House Republicans just passed would end overtime pay as American workers know it.
I am disappointed to see, one more time, that the Trump Administration is undermining the confidence of the health insurance marketplaces under the Affordable Care Act.
