                     SCRAP CURRENT HEALTH CARE BILL

  (Mr. FLEMING asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. FLEMING. Mr. Speaker, last year, I introduced House Resolution 
615, a resolution that simply says, if you vote for a government-run 
health care system, you should be willing 
to be subject to it. As of today, over 
3 million Americans have gone to 
fleming.house.gov in support of this resolution.
  This message continues to resonate across America for one simple 
reason: The people of this country are sick and tired of being the 
victims of bad laws while their elected representatives exempt 
themselves from the very same laws. If Congress feels increased taxes, 
higher premiums, and government-run health care are good enough for 
American families, then it should be good enough for them as well.
  I urge the President and Democrat leadership to listen to this 
overwhelming uproar from the American public. Scrap the current 
legislation and go back to the drawing board to craft a true bipartisan 
bill that increases access and quality of health care while driving 
down costs for American families.
