Brown Center. Congressman Al Green spoke about the implementation of the Affordable Care Act. “Affordable healthcare should not be a privilege for some, it should be available to all. The Affordable Care Act is designed to end, among other things, unfair discrimination based on gender, preexisting conditions, employment status, and age when obtaining health insurance,” Congressman Al Green said. “It is my sincere hope that glitches in the technology and other problems will be corrected quickly such that our great nation can at last make available affordable healthcare for all.” The event provided information booths and enrollment registration for the public. Congressman Al Green joined U.S. Secretary of Labor Thomas E. Perez, Houston Mayor Annise Parker, Harris County Judge Ed Emmett, Congresswoman Sheila Jackson-Lee, and Congressman Gene Green, among others at the event. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
