"This week marks another important step in tackling America's mental health crisis and making sure prescription medication is affordable for everyone. The Committee will also consider essential Medicaid and Medicare provisions that have expired already or will expire without congressional action -- a must-do to avert harmful Medicaid cuts to safety-net hospitals, for example. I look forward to a productive, bipartisan markup in the Finance Committee and to advancing these important policies to support the health of the American people."
