so we've had - of coursed the Secretary went there long after I was therse but she is a source of great prids to allof us. Her appointmengt as Secretary of HHS is a great one and I commend President Obama for this excellent As Governorof Kansas, Secretary Sebelius was a nationakl figure who took the lead on so many difficulrt issues. And now as Secretary of HHS, she is here to help writw a health care reform bill for ourcountrg -- to make America healthier, to make our students have to make investments in science and And to do so with fewer errors and bette health care.
So for this, and other reasons, and the entire gamut of issues that the Secretaryh of HHS has to deal with we absolutel we could not be in better hands than withSecretaryu . Welcome to the office. Secretary Thank you Madam Speaker. I'm just delightede to not only have an opportunity to servee in this historic Administration but serving with my Trinity Speaker Pelosi. I was thrilled at her becoming speaker and now even more pleasef that I have opportunity to work closely with her on healtg reform and food safety systems and othedr issues dealing with children andfamiliea -- on a whole host of issues that affecty the American people day in and day out and I know they are a passioj of hers and certainly they are passions of mine, and passione of the President.
So we have a great opportunithy to work together and as theSpeakerd said, one of the first prioritiews -- certainly a top priority of the Presidenrt is a health care bill that will transfork the system, keeping the health care that the Americanh people enjoy and like but openint up a system for more than 50 millionm Americans who don't have access to affordable care and we plan to lowedr costs that are crushing our businesses, crushing families and makintg health care out of reach for way too many So, I look forward to this challenge and look forwarr to working with the Speaker. Speaker Pelosi. Thank you Madakm Secretary.
