Paul Drury said: “The exact cause of atrial fibrillation is unknown; however, we know that there are multiple risk factors for developing atrial fibrillation. Non-modifiable risks include age and gender. Simply, being male and getting old puts you at risk for AFib,” “Risk factors that are modifiable include obesity, hypertension, diabetes, sleep apnea , alcohol intake and congestive heart failure. By treating these conditions, we can often lower the lifetime risk of developing atrial fibrillation”

This is done with medications to thin the blood, or a small device implanted in the heart to prevent blood clots,” “Treatment is also needed to slow or regulate the heart rate in [AFib.] This can be done with either medications, an invasive procedure called an ablation , or a combination of the two. In some cases, a pacemaker can also be used”

Jan Schakowsky said: “We live in the richest country in the world at the richest moment in history, yet many Americans are unable to feel the magnitude of our wealth. One of the biggest problems we face is income inequality. As big corporations continue to rake in record profits, there are many families struggling to put food on the table,” “Thanks to President Joe Biden, we are growing the economy from the bottom up and the middle out, but we must go even further by passing the Corporate Tax Dodging Prevention Act to help put the interests of everyday Americans ahead of billionaires and transnational corporations. I thank Senator Sanders for devoting his career to tackling income inequality and am proud to partner with him on this important measure”

Bernie Sanders said: “At a time of massive wealth and income inequality and soaring corporate profits, it is an outrage that many large, profitable corporations continue to pay little to nothing in federal income taxes,” “As working people struggle to pay rent and put food on the table, we have a corrupt and rigged tax code that is designed to benefit the wealthy and the powerful at the expense of working families. Meanwhile, Republicans would make a bad situation even worse by providing even more tax breaks to their corporate campaign contributors and the billionaire class while proposing massive cuts to Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. That is unacceptable. We need to create an economy and a government that works for all of us, not just the top one percent. And, one of the ways we can begin to do that is by making sure that large corporations pay their fair share of taxes. American workers should not be paying more in federal income taxes, in a given year, than profitable companies like Target, Amazon and T-Mobile”

John Larson : “At a time when Congress has been looking at wealth disparity, it has to look no further than its own inaction. More than 50 years have passed since the United States Congress has enhanced Social Security. Every person here understands the necessity of what has to be done for the American people. 10,000 baby boomers a day become eligible for Social Security, and more than 40% of the 70 million Americans on Social Security – it’s the only retirement benefit that they have. Democrats have a plan. We’re going to make sure that there’s an across-the-board increase. We’re going to make sure that no one can retire into poverty”

Brendan F Boyle : “Every single Republican except for one on the House Budget Committee is a member of the Republican Study Committee. So, this is clearly the Republican budget. And what does it do? Right there, in black and white, it cuts Social Security for every American who is currently 59 years of age or younger by raising the retirement age. The retirement age is already going up. The full retirement age today is 66 and a half. It will soon be 67. How high do they want to go? 70? 72?”

Jan Schakowsky : “What we are seeing is an attack on the most basic programs that define the United States of America, for example Social Security or Medicare. The Republican Study group, which makes up the majority of the Republican Party right now in the House of Representatives, has put in writing what they want to do, including raising the age of Social Security”
