HEALTH CARE RESPONSE LETTER - I WANT TO SHARE- DO NOT BE AFRAID TO WRITE
Blessing my brothers and sisters, perhaps hearing responses will help your issues:
Dear Mrs. Tillson:
Thank you for contacting me to share your priorities for comprehensive health care reform. As Chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, I am working hard with my colleagues in the House and Senate and with the Obama Administration to craft legislation on this critically important issue, which affects every American family.
I am a longtime supporter of efforts to provide comprehensive health care coverage for all, control medical and insurance costs, and enhance the quality and efficiency of the health care system. According to Families USA, nearly 87 million people-more than one-third of Americans under 65-went without health insurance at some point during the last two years. Uninsured patients go without the care they need and face the constant risk of ruinous debt if they contract a serious disease or have an accident. Those who have health insurance are finding their insurance plans are costing more and covering less. Furthermore, the cost of health care accounts for an increasingly large share of the economy and of government spending, and poses a fundamental threat to our economic stability and future prosperity.
With a strong, shared commitment to health care reform among the leadership in Congress and the Obama Administration, we have a unique opportunity this year to pass long-overdue legislation. I have been working closely with the chairmen of the House Education and Labor Committee and Ways and Means Committee, and we have developed a discussion draft fo r legislation on which each committee is holding hearings. I hope you will take a moment to learn more about the proposal at http://energycommerce.house.gov/index.php, and you can count on me to keep your concerns in mind as the legislative process moves forward.
Thank you again for writing. I am glad to know of your interest in this issue, and look forward to hearing from you in the future on matters of concern.
With kind regards, I am
Sincerely,
HENRY A. WAXMAN
Member of Congress
