                 AMERICAN SOLUTIONS FOR AMERICAN HEALTH

  (Ms. WATSON asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Ms. WATSON. Mr. Speaker, we urgently need to fix the health care 
system for American families. Every day, Americans worry not simply 
about getting well, but whether they can afford to get the kind of 
health care they need. For American businesses, soaring health care 
costs put American companies at a competitive disadvantage in a global 
economy. For our fiscal future we have the most expensive health care 
system in the world.
  We're emphasizing cost, choice, security, and quality. We want a 
policy that costs less, covers more, and is quality. Your choice. You 
have it. If you like it, you keep it. For security and peace of mind, 
for quality patient-centered care, we want American solutions for 
American health.
