mike braun is not an evil person.espite the way they talk, they are not secretly working for the other side. most of them are just empty, sad people and politics is e the way they feel the yawning void inside where a personal life should be. they are pleasers. they are searching for the approval of strangers. our job is to give them clear instructions about what we want. we do that by voting and by making noise. they will not lead us. we know that now. they have refused to. we have to lead and when we do, they will follow. johnny burke is the director of american conservative magazine. thank you for coming on. the republican party got our really clear message i would say in 2016 when donald trump came from nowhere and took it over.ut what they need to reorient and become the party of ordinary people, all colors, middle-class people. why didn't they dola that? >> they failed because they are cowards. they clung to being the party of wall street instead of prioritizing the issues that animate main street americans, and

senator braun. >> thank you, madam chair. this is just another topic regarding healthcare. i spent so much time on the issue prior to becoming a senator, and social determinants underlying issues with chronic conditions as well as how minorities are being treated through an epidemic like this, to me, still begs the question of what's wrong with our healthcare system before we got to this junction? and in my opinion, i'm going to ask the question of mr. woods and mr. jones, our issue with healthcare when it comes to access, covering pre-existing conditions, no caps on coverage, all the things, 80 senators weighed in prior to covid coming along, are still there. and to me the number one issue, and been referred to as the tapeworm on our economy, is the high cost of healthcare. 18-90% of our gdp in this country and, of course, it's nearly half that in 20-25 other countriese with results that are as good as ours. so to me in my own business in trying to tackle this 12 years ago, until i engaged the individual in his or her own well-being and try to provide transparency so you c

senator braun already referred to this. but we also have cost transparency. if there is a medication which has the price being elevated unnecessarily and if the customer knew that, she would know, wait a second, i can get my medication far less expensively here versus there, or if i accept a substitute again the medication will be more affordable, we mandate that kind of price transparency that hall louse the customer to make an informed decision. now, i know there are competing ideas on how to lower drug costs, how democrats, for example, have introduced legislation that they claim would lower costs. but remember, mr. president, i told you that there is a problem, how do we preserve the incentive to innovate while making sure the innovation is affordable. house democrats have put up a bill, yes, it makes medicine more affordable, but it kills the desire to innovate. the congressional budget office has estimated that if the bill that house democrats have proposed is passed, there will be 38 fewer cures, mr. president, invented by pharmaceutical manufacturers.

before he spoke on the senate andr, senators mike johnson -- ron johnson and mike braun try to pass aill where state and federal assistance combined would have been two thirds of a person's previous wage. if they could not implement the way to match, it would have been at $200 per week benefit, but schumer blocked the bill. democrats then try to pass the houses roughly $3 trillion bill, but it was blocked by republicans. democrats also blocked a one-week extension of the $600 per week benefit the president was just advocating for. democrats argued that it is not sufficient, that they needs to pass everything, or close to everything that is in the bill that they have passed in may, that they can't just do unemployment benefits, they have to come to the table and compromise on all of the different proposals out there to help with economic aid, mortgage, health care, schools, etc. we are giving you the opportunity this morning to tell washington what you think they should do. george in bristol, tennessee, what do you need, george? caller: i am for the senate's, of course, and as far as t

senator mike braun, republican from indiana, is with us.split within the republicans about what you want, when you want it, and what form it should take. do you support more stimulus checks? >> so what i support, stu, would be with all the money we've already spent, i think it's now up to $26 trillion in total debt, it's an unusual circumstance, but visiting businesses across indiana which i did over the last two weeks, some have been left out in the cold so i'm for addressing any errors and/or omissions and for those at the very low end of the scale that do not have a job, because this thing was working like gangbusters up until march 1st, it was the hottest economy, the trump economy was working. i have been about trying to get back to it as safely as we can. when it comes to throwing trillions around, i thought hundreds of billions were a lot when i got here, i think there's going to be many of us measuring it to get good value out of it, not just spend more money. stuart: you're not real enthusiastic, are you? >> well, i am to take care

just recently, i joined with my colleague, senator braun of indiana, in introducing a bill that helps address yet another critical issue for americans. increasing transparency and lowering health care costs. our health care price transparency act would implement the administration's rules requiring hospitals and insurers to reveal their low, discounted prices and negotiated rates to patients before they receive medical care. iowans should be able to know the cost associated with their health care in advance so that they can make the best decisions for themselves and for their families. folks, let's not forget that outside the halls of congress, americans are facing hard times. they are mourning the loss of loved ones who have been taken by this virus. they're worried about how they will take care of their children at home while they work to provide. they are concerned for their health and the well-being of their loved ones. and many of them are considering skipping a dose of their medication or cutting a pill in half to try to make that prescription stretch just a little bit farther u
