bill cassidy. and we need a plan for free vaccines.his is a bright spot for us in the pandemic, vaccines that are safe and effective. we need to keep the political interference out of the rollout of the vaccines. when ready, we need to make sure they are free for everyone. that's legislation i'm working on in the senate. mike: jason lewis, what would you do to get the country out of this, and what would you do in the senate to get us there? sen. lewis: the first thing i would do is pass covid relief, which my opponent has opposed three times. they are still opposing covid relief. they say on one hand it's a next essential threat, h1 and one had 60 million infections, not 7 million, but they say it's a next essential threat. but joe biden's campaign yesterday said they were going to start door knocking again. no word in the wake of the news today. you have nancy pelosi say "come to chinatown, it's not a problem." bill de blasio saying the same thing. the real crisis is new york, new jersey, and minnesota, where you took covid positive p

let's go to bill cassidy right now, the republican in louisiana senator who himself had once tested positive for the virus and had 14 days in quarantine, now here till live to tell about it and offer advice to the united stateunited president ofe united states. thank you for being here. what would you tell the president that he has to deal with now in the next few days? >> sleep. sleep, sleep, sleep. you can zoom and take your call, but give yourself two naps a day. the physician mention fatigue. just get some sleep. >> neil: he has an older guy, a young 74, i always ensure that i say that, because i am there myself. but it is a little riskier, right? that is a vulnerable subset of the population. he is going to be quarantined from 10-14 days, senator. that's right about the time he is facing a second debate with joe biden, would you recommend that? i know it is early. but coming out of quarantine to have another debate? >> two things about that. he is at higher risk. he is over 70, he is too heavy. both of those are major risk factors for having complications. i found that when i started of

leland: bring in louisiana senator bill cassidy, sir, normally you're talking about getting people helpyou're without power and big blooding, seems the folks that baton rogue need help. senator: i have a roof over my head and i'm good. it's the folks, southwest louisiana that need the help. on the other hand there are 50,000 people in the capital region who, baton rogue area who don't have lek industries -- electricity. leland: this double whammy really came in the wrong order. delta would have been a lot easier to live with had laura not come with 140-miles-per-hour winds and ripped the roofs off, right? senator: totally. when you're in lake charles after hurricane laura, you walked down the street and you say that doesn't look too bad and you open the door and you see all the rain that poured in when the roof got ripped off and and insulation and furniture, roof tarp over the roofs and delta rips off the tarps and more than anything it can be incredibly discouraging. you have done all this work in 6 weeks and, poof, you feel like you have to startver. leland: you feel for the power cr

will come out to say whether he agrees with some of those democrats who said no way and senator bill cassidy joins us right now the louisiana republican on what he makes of all of this , senator good to have you back. he's going to wait to see how this works out i think what he's referring to is the vote on barrett. it's fairly safe to conclude right now, it's always you don't want to say these things 100% that judge barrett will be confirmed along party lines and then, he's presumably going to announce whether he's for or against packing the court, what do you think? >> i don't think he'll announce but i do think this is part in parcel of their plan. they keep everything close to the vest pretending to have a moderate agenda when in reality and schumer has been talking about this forever, they want to do away with the filibuster, so they can pack the court, make washington d.c., puerto rico, and american virgin islands american states so that then they have a permanent ruling majority on the left. this is how they get the green new deal. this is how they get government takeover healthcare.

we're also going to get the latest on what the senator will do, maybe not do, senator bill cassidy willwhat he made of what could have been the most telling faux pas in a presidential debate since gerald ford, 1976, insisted eastern europe wasn't under soviet.com nation. it was the joe biden remarks about

number one to support senator cassidy's bill to provide for transparency and cash pricing through procedures and second i would support the ability of states to buy insurance across state lines is only one insurance provider left in the state because of obama care and that has to change. host: rebuttal? ben-david: the cost of healthcare will go down if everybody is part of the system. that is the original idea of the individual mandate. but i agree the affordable care act did not address some of the needs of wyoming and therefore the system i envision will make sure that we have funding for rural hospitals and also maintaining the healthcare professionals. >> when senator simpson took on the challenge of immigration reform we had high hopes and now here we are almost 40 years later trying to solve the problems that has only gotten worse so how do you address the challenges and finally find a solution? >> the beginning to immigration reform is to secure our borders we have to have secure borders before we can expand legal immigration and crackdown on illegal immigration so first secure the bo

cassidy. we send the money back to south carolina. we get a billion dollars more under my billhat obamacare gives us. we get to manage the money here at home. local politicians are in charge. don't like what they are doing, vote them out. a bureaucrat in washington could care less about us. pre-existing conditions are required under the graham cassidy bill. my mom died when i was 21. my dad died when i was 22. we went broke because we were underinsured. when my parents died, my sister was 15. we got a social security provider benefit check from my sister. we moved in with an aunt and 25le who never made over hundred dollars. i get that we are all one car wreck away from getting health. we won't take pre-existing conditions away from anybody. that makes no sense. i'm trying to get the money in the power out of washington and back you're at home because our liberal friends are going to put all of our health care under the federal government umbrella and that is not the way to go, folks. thank you. carolyn? carolyn: senator graham, marijuana is still illegal at the federal level.

entire finance committee passed out of committee a bipartisan prescription drug reduction bill, senator cassidy and i both voted in favor of it, and by estimates, it would reduce spending by about 100 billion dollars on prescription drugs, so there is some common ground to be had on certainly making sure that we lower the cost of prescription drugs. there is some common ground to be had as well in overseeing a medicaid expenditure. i will say that one of my experiences as governor when we expanded medicaid was talking to the number of people who got on medicaid, for instance, for substance abuse disorder and got treated and then got jobs and moved off of medicaid into private insurance in a situation they never would have had if they hadn't had the access to medicate to begin with. i look forward to studying this issue some more with you, senator cassidy because i think if we can't get a handle on healthcare costs, a lot of the rest of our discussions will be more marginal. >> yes, i agree with that. >> thank you. >> i would like to thank our witnesses, the ranking member, the rest of my collea

bill to contribute to his campaign. we need to make the affordable care act more robust, and we don't need what senator graham is proposing. i don't want to get into the graham cassidy bill now. you wanted to replace the affordable care act with a proposal to block grant money to the states to design their own health care programs. nonpartisan analysts that examined your bill in 2017 found people with pre-existing conditions that see a spike in premiums. millions would lose health insurance they have today and medicaid enrollment would decrease. how would that help south carolina? sen. graham: i don't buy that. let's talk about bernie sanders. appetizer, thee main meal is bernie care. there is a commercial with mr. harrison talking to bernie sanders and he says, with champions like you, we will be in good shape. ofnie sanders is in charge health care with aoc and they have in mind to destroy private health care, medicare for all means medicare for nobody. if you have insurance through your employer, it is going to go away if democrats are in charge. obamacare has been a disaster for south carolina. premiums went up 30% in this state. we started with five choices, yo

senator graham has a horrible bill that the arp condemns, graham cassidy. sen. graham: when he heard the word health care, and you hear democrat talk about it, they want to put all health care under government control, they want to illuminate your ability to have health care of the worksite. about 60% of the people below 65 get health care at work. obamacare is a placeholder for bernie care. they are believing and socialized medicine. , mr. sharp, was a disaster for south carolina. and you have gone up are getting less coverage, your copayments are going up and your premiums are going up if you're working so someone else can get a three. three states under obamacare get 35% of all the money, california new york and maryland. the graham cassidy belt would block grant send that money back to south carolina with a formula that would allow us to get 60% more than obamacare would give us because we stop sending money. here's my belief with health care. let's get out of washington. put it in the hands of washington -- put in the hands of doctors close to you. have acc

bills going forward. we've been promoting this program since late august and you may have seen some of our advertiseme advertisements. i'm going to turn this over now to cassidy who will tell you about what we're doing to promote this bill credit and the discount program. i'll continue to drive the presentation here for cassidy. >> thank you mike. excuse me, hello everyone. my name is cassidy, i'm part of the powers communication team at the sfpuc. i want to go through our billing marketing campaign. the goal of this marketing campaign is to generate awareness for the bell credit program and the credit that will be available in october for our customers and also to increase the enrollment ahead of the september 30th deadline so as many people that qualify as possible can enroll and receive the discount in october. the target audience for this marketing campaign are our existing customers, low income san francisco san francisco cansens -- san franciscans, customers behind on their bills in communities that are most impacted by covid-19. as you see here on the slide, this is currently up. i'll talk more about it on the next slide please. so for this campaign, w

but no one thought the senate finance committee could produce a bill that has a fair amount of bipartisan support including chairman cassidy and we took a fresh of perch which was to say we were going to reduce subsidies to those drug companies engage in proust dowd -- price-gouging and we could have done it without dr. swegle his team. thank you mr. chairman i look forward to hearing from your colleagues. >> thank you so much. >> i'm sorry senator carper is next. >> if you you're in a hurry i'm not in a hurry. >> i will yield to the gentleman from delaware. >> excellent. to her chair and ranking member i thank you more than enough for holding this hearing. oftentimes before i was a governor and was a congressman i was a state treasure in 1976. they couldn't balance a budget and we were just a mess. we have the highest marginal income tax rate of country 19.8% personal income tax at 19.8%. years later tina what was the key? great leadership are the key was great leadership. we had the democrats and republicans in the legislature who work together to work on a physically -- fiscally responsive -- fiscally responsible course

cassidy, my partner in this bipartisan effort for his important work. and also, thank you, too, chairman wicker, for joining as a co-sponsor. the reason for this bill is that coastal communities are getting walloped by frequent and severe storms, sea level rise, shifting fisheries, and all manner of conservation and infrastructure challenges. we see it, right now, in the gulf coast. walloped by sally. yet, per capita, coastal states receive substantially less federal preparedness and resiliency funding than inland states. two examples. the land and water conservation fund. and the army corps's flood and coastal storm damage reduction fund. for lwcf, over the past decade, for every dollar that the fund sent to inland states, per capita, coastal states got just 40 cents. and much of that, in the coastal states, was for inland and upland projects, not for their coasts. over at the army corps, the so-called flood and coastal storm damage reduction fund has varied, over the past ten years, between 19 times and 120 times more spent, annually, on inland work than on coastal work. 120 to 1 for a fund whose name has coastal in it. this persistent imbalance
