Mr. Speaker, it is with great honor that I stand as a co-sponsor of this bill that is sponsored by Chairman Dingell, Chairman Rangel and others.

One of the major issues I heard during my campaign from seniors was how much it cost them to buy drugs and how it is essential for their life and well being.

This weekend we will be celebrating, on Monday, the birthday of Dr. Martin Luther King, observing his birthday. Dr. King knew there was economic and social justice, both. Dr. King said equality means dignity, and dignity means that you can afford some health care, and you don't have to spend every penny on the utility bill and on drug prices and you run out of money.

WWMLK, what would Martin Luther King do today? He would vote for this bill. I ask everybody else to do it in honor of Dr. King.
