i am proud that the committee on education and work force has taken a leading role in this effort. health care costs is the number one issue facing small businesses. through the dot com bubble and pandemic and record inflation, small businesses have identified health care care costs. house republicans recognize that these small businesses are the engines of the american economy. and this package is the first step towards much needed relief. i would like to take a moment to discuss the two pieces of this package from the jurisdiction of the education and work force committee. first, this package incorporates representative good's self-insurance protection act. we have passed the self-insurance protection act through committee because small businesses are being squeezed. no other way to put it. premiums are skyrocketing and costing a small fortune. sing coverage premiums are about 8,000 a year and outpacing inflation. the bottom-up pressures have forced small businesses out of the insurance marketplace and they are deciding to self-insure. experts predicted this when a.c.a. passed an

by bobby scott, a democratic congressman from virginia and the ranking member of the house committee on educationhe workforce. the joining is taking the time. given this decision by the supreme court's on the presidents loan forgiveness program, what would you say to students that might be worrying about how they can afford to pay for university? rep. scott: i think it is instructive to see how we got here. states used to pay two thirds of the cost of a state college. now it is less than one third. the pell grant, money available to low income students to help pay for college, used to cover about 80% of the costs of going to state college. now it is less than 30%. all of that extra money, that gap has been covered over the years by student loans. when you have older people saying they worked their way through college, they had a pell grant that covered 80% of the cost, they only had to cover 20%. now students have to pay almost the whole thing. that is how we got here. students have incurred massive debt. the forgiveness program was just a modest relief for what has become overbearing debt. it tu

i serve on two committees that have crafted pieces of this legislation, ways and means and the education and work force committee. and i would say that all of us, i think this is probably shared on both sides of the aisle, we want all americans to have access to the health care and to the insurance that they choose for themselves. and i think, as i said, i think we share that. and certainly as a small business owner myself, you know, i can relate to business owners who want to ensure that their employees, their team members have access to the health care. they want them to be healthy, they want them to go home from work healthy, and they're very interested in ensuring that their employees have affordable coverage. this committee did -- focused on expanding the choice arrangements, which is a system that will provide numerous benefits for employees and small businesses, because it lets job creators offer their workers cash to purchase individual health plans. which will help by ensuring that workers, if they move from one job to another, can take their health plan with them. they're more
