FCJ Quote of the Day


Drew Altman

"We're at the beginning of the next great debate about health reform. This is an issue which was very much on the minds of the American people as an economic worry for quite some time, but was just nowhere as a national political priority even six months ago. Now it's front and center again, and the words 'universal coverage' are back at the center of the debate."

- Drew Altman, president of the Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation, 3/6/7
