King, Latham Introduce Bill Supporting Iowa’s Rural Hospitals“Iowa’s rural hospitals are extremely important to the communities they serve,” Congressman King said. “It is important that we take steps to ensure the viability of our rural hospitals. For years, these tweener hospitals have been put at a significant financial disadvantage by Medicare’s payment policies. This bill will begin to address this problem by providing these hospitals with much-needed support through increased Medicare payments. This will allow these important community anchors to continue the great work they do in rural Iowa.” |

ABC: King Defends E-Verify
Congressman King was recently featured in an ABC News report on E-Verify, an online system that employers can use to ensure their employees, after hire, are legally authorized to work. An excerpt:"In these tough economic times, no American jobs should go to illegal immigrants," King said in a statement. "E-Verify is a quick and easy system that shuts off the illegal worker jobs magnet and provides employers with a way to verify that their employees are legal to work. Americans cannot afford to lose more jobs to illegal workers. The American people want this Administration to enforce existing immigration laws and protect American workers by using the E-Verify system."
