The average American family today pays twice as much for its health care as it did a decade ago. Democrats are committed to lowering skyrocketing costs and bringing stability and security back to health care.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and Senators Durbin, Schumer and Murray held a press conference Thursday with Kathy De Vincentis and Regina Holliday, two individuals who have struggled due to the high cost of health care.

Kathy is a retired hospice nurse and breast cancer survivor who resides in Washington, D.C. She and her husband, Armando, who suffers from the debilitating effects of a stroke, have had to spend much of their retirement savings on life-saving medications because of inadequate health insurance coverage.

I call on you today to do the right thing for hardworking Americans like Armando and me.
