Congressman Bob Inglis

Congressman Bob Inglis represented the Fourth District of South Carolina in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1993-1998. After an unsuccessful challenge to U.S. Senator Fritz Hollings in 1998, Inglis rejoined the law firm of Leatherwood Walker Todd & Mann, P.C. where he practiced commercial real estate and corporate law.

Inglis was elected again to Congress in 2004 and to a fifth term overall in 2006. He serves on the Science & Technology Committee and is Ranking Member on the Energy & Environment Subcommittee. He also sits on the Foreign Affairs Committee during the 110th Congress. He chaired the Research Subcommittee of the Science Committee in the 109th Congress and served on the Judiciary Committee and on the Education and Workforce Committee. He co-chairs the House Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Caucus.

Congressman Inglis recently completed a fact-finding health care tour to better understand how health care is being delivered and paid for in Greenville, Spartanburg, Union and a portion of Laurens County in his home state of South Carolina. Congressman Inglis met with patients and families, small and large businesses, physicians, hospitals and clinics, pharmacies and key government agencies in the Fourth District.

In our interview with Congressman Inglis, we discuss the healthcare tour, Senator McCain’s healthcare proposal, and the future of American healthcare.
