“Governor Sebelius is an excellent choice to become Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services and a key leader in the effort to secure meaningful health care reform.

“Governor Sebelius is deeply committed to achieving high-quality, affordable health care for all Americans, and her knowledge about health care issues makes her ideally suited for this new leadership role.
