Daniel B. Maffei Yet another reminder of the out of control costs of health care in our current system.

Daniel B. Maffei Taking a short pause from health care, I introduced an amendment (that passed the House) today to move up the Credit Card Holders' Bill of Rights effective dates from February and August for some provisions to immediately.
