The Blue Print
on Banking, Housing & Urban Affairs:
As a response to the Indonesian volcano the Senate Housing, Banking, and Urban committee has begun preparation for reform in the nation’s public health clinics.
Senator John Tester (D-MT) proposed reform for a strict bill indicating how the funds should be distributed. He expects the expansion of health clinics to lead to more available jobs, and essentially remove our country from the critical affair of fiscal freeze.
Taxation for high quality health packages would fund expansion.
Tester also expressed the importance of avoiding diseases, like H1N1, with the widespread availability of vaccinations and the need to provide the less fortunate with the means of prevention before intensive care is required.
Yesterday, the Senate BHUA passed “A Bill to Aid Every American’s Life”, a remittance payment regulation bill.
This bill was supported by both parties to “increase employment and American economic prosperity” (“Remittance Payment Regulation Act – A Bill to Aid Every American’s Life”).
Due to a lack of funding the bill was tabled.
Senator Bob Menendez (D-NJ) has issued a statement saying that the decision was unethical because no funding for the bill is needed, only a change in tax rates.
The newly proposed bill includes the prevention of disease spending, centers for response to emergencies, the building of new buildings based on needs, a 5% tax break if people in need of health clinics relocate based on need, student commitment for seven years, family based usage, and vaccinations.
