Elizabeth Warren (Op-Ed): What Republicans want to take away
Warren: What Republicans want to take away
................................................
But now, Mitt Romney, Scott Brown, and their fellow Republicans propose to repeal every single one of these provisions. And if they get their way, then what? They dont have any better proposal. Its just back to square one and more battles over health care.
Its time to move forward.
Its time to focus on building a future. Its time to create jobs, to improve education, to invest in roads and bridges, water, power and all the infrastructure that businesses need to get their goods to market and help people get to work the things that create the right conditions for opportunities to flourish.
And yes, its time to make the health care system better. We need to reduce health care costs, not by shifting those expenses to families, but by developing innovation in health care delivery and research that will cut costs by improving health outcomes. Massachusetts is already at the frontier of these innovations. Our hospitals receive the most NIH funding to discover new breakthroughs. Our businesses are at the fore of designing new medical devices and curing diseases through biotechnology. And our doctors, administrators, insurers, and others all across our health care system are working toward a shared future of better health and lower costs for everyone. They deserve our support, not more years of fighting.
Now that the Supreme Court has resolved the last challenge to health care reforms, we have a real opportunity to move ahead, to concentrate on strengthening our economy and giving hard working families a chance to build real security. Its time to move forward.
