We also learned that paramedics. who were called to attempt to save Negron. described the clinic as "disgusting and filthy." This tragic story highlights the plight of Ms. Negron and other poor women in this country who are subjected to substandard health care services simply because of their economic status. Mr. Speaker. the message to Congress is clear. When we begin the debate on health care legislation. we must guarantee universal access to quality care and ensure that we prevent unqualified doctors from preying on poor and immigrant women. Until we eradicate the twotiered system of health services. we will continue to be haunted by the senseless and tragic deaths of poor women in this Nation.
