1:16Now PlayingDebate is about "Health Care vs. Don't Care" Says Lawmaker
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Representative. Edward J. Markey (D-Mass), a senior member of the Energy and Commerce Committee and Dean of the Massachusetts congressional delegation, today spoke against the Republicans' "Don't Care" legislation to repeal the health care law enacted last year.
"The health care law is already helping seniors afford their medications and stay out of the hospital. But Republicans don't care about Grandma -- they want to take back the drug benefits provided to seniors last year. Grandma and Grandpa would no longer be eligible for free preventive care like mammograms and colonoscopies that keeps them healthy and out of the emergency room," said Markey.
