  Ms. LORETTA SANCHEZ of California. Madam Speaker, as we celebrate 
Hispanic Heritage Month, I would like to bring attention to Molina 
Healthcare, a managed care organization that provides healthcare 
services to families and individuals eligible for government-sponsored 
programs.
  Thirty years ago, Dr. C. Molina, an emergency room physician, saw a 
need to provide quality healthcare for patients regardless of their 
financial status. Consequently, Molina Healthcare was started.
  Molina Healthcare is dedicated to addressing the disparities in 
healthcare in order to positively impact members' long term health and 
well-being. In addition, Molina Healthcare is devoted to serving the 
community and positively impacting the neighborhoods they serve.
  The vision of Molina Healthcare is consistent during Hispanic 
Heritage Month. They understand the need to develop linguistically and 
culturally sensitive healthcare programs members. I applaud Molina 
Healthcare, for reaching out to low-income children and women in rural 
counties in Texas through the Children's Health Insurance and Prenatal 
Plan. Lastly, I congratulate Molina Healthcare, for being named the 
2010 largest Hispanic-owned business in the United States by Hispanic 
Business Magazine.
