Moore Statement on Final Health Insurance Reform Vote

Milwaukee, WI, March 25, 2010

(Washington, DC) - U.S. Congresswoman Gwen Moore (D-Milwaukee) today made the following statement after the House passed and sent to the President improvements to historic health insurance reform legislation that was signed into law on Tuesday:

“Tonight’s vote ends more than a year of work to deliver historic reform.

“Families will see benefits right away.  Small businesses will get help to afford insurance for their employees.  Seniors will get help to afford medicine.  And we take care of children – insurance companies can no longer deny them based on pre-existing conditions and they can stay on their parents’ insurance until they turn 26.

“Tonight’s improvements are just the first.  We will have many more opportunities to fine tune this bill as it goes into effect.”
