STATEMENT OF MAYOR MICHAEL R. BLOOMBERG ON THE HEALTH CARE REFORMS ADVANCING IN CONGRESS

"The health reform proposal that Congress will shortly consider is shaping up to merit broad, bipartisan support, incorporating Republican ideas and earning deserved support from Republican leaders such as former Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist.  The approach has great potential to reduce costs for families, businesses and government at every level over the long term, while extending coverage to many millions of the uninsured and investing in proven, cost-effective public health strategies.  This is an approach that Republicans, Democrats and Independents can and should support."
