Washington, D.C. - Today, the top Republican on the House Ways and Means Committee Kevin Brady (R-TX) and the top Republican on the Ways and Means Health Subcommittee Devin Nunes (R-CA) sent a letter to Ways and Means Chairman Richard Neal (D-MA) calling for a Committee hearing on H.R. 1384, the “Medicare for All Act of 2019."
The lawmakers wrote to Chairman Neal:
“Given that the Committee on Ways and Means has jurisdiction over this bill, we call on you to promptly schedule a hearing on H.R. 1384."
“Republicans-the party of Medicare Advantage, the Medicare prescription drug benefit, the Children’s Health Insurance Program and the original law protecting coverage at work for people with pre-existing conditions-stand ready to work with you to fix the broken status quo. A public accounting of H.R. 1384 is necessary to inform the working families and seniors we represent to the risks of their health coverage under this proposal."
