He predicted that economic growth would be slow during the year while unemployment would remain high, in part because of spending cuts that Congress would be forced to enact to avoid sequestration. Additionally, the CBO estimated that although the deficit would drop in 2013, it would rise back up to $1 trillion because of entitlement spending for an aging population. "Sequestration," a legal procedure in which every federal agency has the same percentage of its budget taken back in order to cut deficit spending, was agreed to in the Budget Control Act of 2011 and scheduled to happen on March 1, 2013. http://www.c-spanvideo.org/program/310947-1 info@c-spanarchives.org (National Cable Satellite Corporation) Senate Committee http://www.c-spanvideo.org/program/310947-1 Wed, 13 Feb 2013 03:47:03 GMT Retirement specialists testified on the state of workers' retirement funds.

The Association of American Medical Colleges estimated that the U.S. would have a shortage of approximately 21,000 primary care physicians in 2015, with the shortfall projected to further increase as the number of primary care medical students continued to decline and 30 million Americans became eligible for heath care under the Affordable Care Act. Among the issues discussed were Medicare reimbursement rates, changing the culture of medical schools to encourage students into primary health care, and forgiveness of some of the medical school loan debt accrued by primary care practitioners. http://www.c-spanvideo.org/program/310654-1 info@c-spanarchives.org (National Cable Satellite Corporation) Senate Committee http://www.c-spanvideo.org/program/310654-1 Wed, 30 Jan 2013 01:01:18 GMT Federal, state, and local mental health officials testified on weaknesses in the mental health care system, with a focus on relationships between mental health and gun violence in the wake of the December 2012 shootings at a Newtown, Connecticut, elementary school.
