| Abstract
|
:
|
The lack of health insurance for tens of millions of Americans has serious negative consequences and economic costs not only for the uninsured themselves but also for their families, the communities they live in, and the whole country. The Committe urges Congress and the Administration to act immediately to eliminate this longstanding problem.
