I'm doing everything I can every day for my family to eat well, to exercise, to avoid substances, to stop smoking, to drink alcohol in moderation. I'm doing everything I can. But if there are not community supports, if there are not policy supports, if there aren't policy systems and environmental change helping me and my family, it's going to be very, very difficult to do.

Prevention, public health, it's too important to underfund this. And there needs to be bipartisan support to finance evidence-based prevention and public health interventions. So it could be community-based prevention programs. I talk about several things that we did at Health and Human Services from the Recovery Act back in 2009.

There are opportunities to finance the public health infrastructure, which is significantly underfunded in this country. The public health emergency fund, so the next Ebola or the Zika we face, we're not waiting on Congress to fight for months at a time before their resources, but targeted investments to lift up prevention and public health, that has to be a national priority.

And I think in terms of bipartisanship, how do you crack that nut? There was an important commission on evidence-based policymaking that Senator Patty Murray and former Speaker Paul Ryan actually led a couple of years ago and talked about sort of an evidence, the importance of evidence-based policymaking in that same vein.

there ought to be bipartisanship around what are those priorities in the prevention and public health space that we actually need to invest more in. Right.
