Congressman John Tierney introduced an amendment to ensure that patient care is protected even as Republican leaders continue their misguided attempt to repeal health care reform. Tierney testified before the House Rules Committee to urge that his amendment, which protects a provision that he successfully included in the health care reform bill last year that requires insurers to spend 80 to 85 percent of health premiums on medical care, rather than administrative costs, be given a vote on the House floor.
