Adler talks health care

Yesterday, Mayor Steve Adler once again dove into a national debate, releasing a statement on the current health care debate taking place in the U.S. Senate. “As mayor, I focus on practical solutions, not politics. The Senate should do the same. Mayors are on the ground, every day, closest to people. That’s why I support having a bipartisan group of mayors, governors and Senators to focus on fixing our health care system. That’s the results-oriented leadership Austin, Texas, and America deserve,” he said. Earlier this week, Adler signed a letter drafted by the United States Conference of Mayors that called for a bipartisan working group to “fix the healthcare system.”
