latta. the chair: the gentleman is recognized. mr. latta: thank you, mr. speaker. i rise today agreeing with americans that drug prices are too high. congress must act and we have done so in the energy and commerce committee by passing bipartisan solutions. h.r. 3 is bad policy, a partisan sham, and will result in more than 100 fewer cures. plus it is dead on arrival in the senate. what if that one new drug is the cure for alzheimer's or cancer? under the leadership of ranking member walden, we have solutions that deliver lower costs and more cures to americans. our bill is entirely bipartisan. h.r. 19 lowers the cost of prescription drugs and caps seniors' out-of-pocket costs. it encourages innovation and will increase competition while enhancing transparency and getting more generic medicines to market faster. the american people deserve solutions that will be signed into law. i encourage my colleagues across the aisle to deliver the american people more cures, not fewer, and support h.r. 19. thank you, mr. speaker, and i yield back the balance of my time. the ch
