WASHINGTON — On day 39 of the longest government shutdown in U.S. history, Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-La.) said he is still working toward finding bipartisan compromise on health care costs. In a surprise appearance Saturday at the annual American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases meeting, Cassidy said he had put forward ideas that could help defray health insurance costs for Americans next year while Congress works toward a “mutually agreed upon, bipartisan package” to lower healthcare costs. He also spoke of his dismay at changing vaccine policy. Advertisement
