Generational grudges forever

I can’t support this bill. It doesn’t meet the urgency of the moment and deliver actual relief that can pass both chambers of Congress.
I’ve been clear that we need real action to stop the devastating health care cost increases that are hurting millions of families. 1/2

This deal doesn’t deliver the results that Americans are rightfully demanding and if it comes to the House, I will be a hard no. I have and will continue to hold the line - no matter what.
