biden bennett bill of which i'm a co-sponsor does this as a cost of zero. the coburn bill does this, the greg bill does this, the bill the senator hatch and cornyn are working on does this -- a dozen all without a government plan and without employer mandates, without expanding medicated and to make sure that everybody gets health care and not just discriminated against based on ratings. so mr. chairman, i thank you for being patient and giving me this much time, but i believe this latter way considering these other conservatives that are ready to be considered is a better way to meet our objectives. all 300 million americans receive a better health-care opportunity not just 47 million. a health-care plan that each american could afford would be available. it would be a plan in which each of us and our daughter to make decisions, not washington plan. in would be a plan for the first time we emphasize prevention and wellness which we all want to do. would give low income americans opportunities for the same kind of health care that most of us have a year ago
