Statement from Mike Goldfarb

"This week my daughter was rushed to the emergency room; next week my wife and I will sit down and figure out if we can afford the health insurance we used for her care.

"If this system is working for you—stick with the incumbents that have gotten us here. If you’re as fed up as I am, let’s try something new.

"Voters were loud and clear last week. It is time for us to listen to them. Members of the U.S. House must push for a guaranteed vote on healthcare premiums this week, not sometime in the future; otherwise, any deal should be dead on arrival."

ABOUT MIKE GOLDFARB:

Mike understands that Washington isn't working and New York families are being left behind.

He carried those lessons into college, eventually graduating cum laude from Harvard University. Mike spent his career creating and leading mission-driven companies that connect the U.S. to emerging markets and strengthen our role in the global economy. Mike served as chief of staff and president for the U.S. at CAB Payments. Before that, he played a key role in launching Taptap Send, a service that made it faster and more affordable for immigrants and families to send money to loved ones overseas. His experience leading teams, managing major financial undertakings, and working across borders is exactly the kind of pragmatic, solutions-driven approach he will bring to Congress.
