mr. king: mr. president, i rise today to talk about a subject that's been much on our minds recently, in recent weeks and months and in fact years and that is health care. one of the most complex, confusing but important topics that we have to consider. before i get into the bulk of what i want to address, i think i want to make the point once again that as we're debating health care and debating who pays, how much they pay, whether it's the a.c.a. or medicare or medicaid or private insurance or private pay, we also have to begin a serious discussion about the underlying cost of health care. regardless of who is paying, it's going to break us. if health care continues to grow and cost as it has over the last 20 years, it's going to eat the federal budget, family budgets, individual budgets, and it's going to be something that we absolutely have to address. usually around here we don't address something until it's a crisis. i would argue as we're approaching 20% of g.d.p., one out of every $5 in the

mr. king: mr. president, i listened with interest to the senator from pennsylvania's comments and, as always, he was articulate and thoughtful and made a strong case. i would like to speak to the issue that we are going to be addressing over the next few days, the next few weeks and probably the next few months, not necessarily to be opposed, but to talk about how we can get where we all want to be, which is lower taxes, higher growth, and a stronger united states economy. i think it's important to emphasize at the beginning that, just so we all know, what we're talking about in the next couple of days isn't a budget. as the senator from pennsylvania noted, it is really a vehicle for a massive tax cut. my problem with the tax cut is not necessarily that we're going to have one, but the question is, how is it structured, who gets the benefits and how is it paid for? as the senator pointed out, we still don't know what the plan is. we have an outline, we have principles, we have bullet points, we hav

mr. king >> this amendment is the essence of fiscal responsibility and simply reinstate a rule that was a rule from 2007 until the 2016 budget resolution. it simply says reconciliation instructions cannot create or add to the deficit or diminish a surplus. this is called the conrad rule. this is the rule here and it just seems to me this is sort of common sense. everybody talks about worrying about the deficit. why shouldn't we be able to object to provisions that do in fact and will in fact add to the deficit so that's the essence of the amendment. it's nothing new. this was the rule here for some 10 years and it should continue to be the rule and perhaps it would help us get out of this deep hole that we are in. thank you. >> senator whitehouse. >> mr. chairman this was really why the budget committee was formed and is senator byrd was in at the creation of this told us when he testified i guess in 2009 before the committee, if you are going to use reconciliation, not to be ripped to reduce
