Nearly half of Americans have NO comprehensive data privacy protections, and small businesses are being left in the dark.
@HouseCommerce is ready to fix that once and for all with the SECURE Data Act, creating one national standard to give all Americans clear and comprehensive data privacy protections.

As American energy demand continues to rise, we must bring new energy generation to our electric grid.

Our mission is to protect taxpayer dollars and uncover fraud, waste, and abuse. @GOPoversight did exactly that by swinging a light on what happened in Minnesota. Every fraudster should be held accountable, every stolen dollar recovered, and every program subjected to oversight.

📸 Yesterday, Chairman @RepGuthrie joined the @POLITICOLive Energy Summit to highlight the work @HouseCommerce is doing to ensure access to affordable and reliable energy for all Americans.
From keeping the lights on for hard-working families to powering advanced manufacturing, America’s energy demand is rapidly increasing, and red tape cannot be allowed to stand in the way of meeting our needs.

When criminals defraud the Medicaid program, they not only steal money; they steal care.
Two state employees in Ohio allegedly "diagnosed" vulnerable children with the same behavioral adjustment disorder—without any testing or treatment—to redirect money from mental health care to their personal slush funds to buy luxury cars like Maseratis, Mercedes, and McLarens.
@HouseCommerce is working to stopping this fraud and restore integrity to Medicaid.

Health care costs are out of control, and what do Democrats do?
They tell massive insurance executives the affordability crisis is not their fault.
This just confirms what we’ve known all along—Democrats are in the pocket of Big Insurance, and are perfectly happy to let them pad their profits at the expense of American families.
Prices are out of control, but Trump says "I love the inflation."

Health care prices shouldn't be a mystery; patients should know how much they're paying and what they're paying for—before their care is administered.
@HouseCommerce is fighting to ensure the American employers and patients have access to meaningful pricing data in order to identify better value and help make more informed decisions about their care:
✅ Makes hospitals and insurers post REAL prices
✅ Gives patients itemized bills
✅ Lets employers see where their dollars go

Today, Chairman @RepMGriffith led a Health hearing on policies to increase health care price transparency for patients and employers.
Americans can compare prices on everything in our economy—from gas to groceries—except their own health care. @HouseCommerce is building on President Trump's transparency agenda to change that and lower costs for families.

Staying ahead of emerging health threats before they reach American shores is a core part of keeping our communities safe.
Last week I joined my @HouseCommerce colleagues to discuss the Ebola and Hantavirus outbreak monitoring and response with @NIH Director @DrJBhattacharya.

Thanks to the work of @HouseCommerce and the @US_FDA, Americans are getting access to the first new active ingredient for sunscreen in two decades!
We are ensuring Americans have access to the most up-to-date and safe sunscreen ingredients to protect them from harmful UV radiation.
For the first time in 20 years, the US Food and Drug Administration approved a new sunscreen ingredient — bemotrizinol, or BEMT — that experts say is a safer option than many chemical ingredients currently in use in the United States. cnn.it/4xgaQ8U

"We are all on the same page, the system is broken."
@RepKatCammack is right: patients deserve to know how much their care costs before they get it—not at the time of the procedure, and certainly not weeks after.
Affordability, competitiveness, and accountability in American health care are not partisan issues. They are American issues. @HouseCommerce is committed to delivering the price transparency reform that patients and employers across the nation deserve.
