Chairman nelson, Ranking Member collins and members of the committee, thank you for holding this hearing. And especially for the opportunity to testify about the future of the longterm policy. The perspective that im about to share comes from my work over the past 20 years of the office of management and budget as a person responsible for the Medicaid Budget.
