WASHINGTON – U.S. Congressman David N. Cicilline (D-RI) issued the following
statement after the U.S. Senate voted to move forward on eliminating health care
coverage for 23 million Americans:

«What the U.S. Senate did today is shameful. Not a single Senator who voted to move
ahead on this bill even knows what will be in it. And neither do their constituents.
This is not how government is supposed to work for the people it serves.»

«Democrats have always been willing to work across the aisle to make the Affordable
Care Act stronger. If Republicans move ahead on their own, it will mean higher costs
and less coverage for working families. That’s unacceptable.»

«Members of Congress should want the very best for their constituents. And that’s
why I’m going to continue fighting to defeat this bill.»
