Senator Jay Rockefeller (D-West Virginia), former governor of West Virginia and possible candidate for the 1992 Democratic nomination for president, addressed the Wisconsin State Democratic party convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. After a series of jokes about his own wealth and name recognition, Sen. Rockefeller discussed the U.S. health system, which he called an “outrage.” He advocated legislation controlling health care costs and allowing access to health care for all Americans. He dared the Republicans to aid the legislation in becoming law, and further criticized the Republicans for failing to enact meaningful domestic legislation. close
