The Affordable Health Care for America Act represents the views of the majority of my constituents in terms of making health insurance work for all consumers at a price they can afford. This is truly a consensus piece of legislation that will hold insurance companies accountable, empower patients and their doctors, and make quality insurance accessible for Americas seniors and families. It is a stronger and more comprehensive bill because of the feedback and input that I have received from Sacramentans over the past year. Thanks to these conversations, the bill now includes important investments in Medicare, an expansion and strengthening of Medicaid, and a policy allowing young Americans to stay on their parents health insurance plans while they transition into financial independence.
