On health care, Biden says there is still more to do
After touting his administration's victories on the economy, Biden spoke about the concerns that he said Americans have about about health care.
"For example, too many of you lay in bed at night staring at the ceiling, wondering what in God's name happens if your spouse gets cancer or your child gets deadly ill or if something happens to you," he said. "Are you going to have the money to pay your medical bills? Are you going to have to sell the house?"
Biden said his administration is bringing costs down so "you can sleep better at night" -- including measures to cap the cost of insulin for seniors on Medicare and give Medicare the power to negotiate drug prices and enhanced Affordable Care Act subsidies that has lowered premiums.
Still, he said there is more work to do, like capping insulin prices for all Americans who need it and extending the lifespan of benefits.
"Let's finish the job, make those savings permanent and expand coverage to those left off Medicaid," he said.
