                           HEALTH CARE REFORM

  (Mr. BOEHNER asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. BOEHNER. Madam Speaker, the American people are appalled by what 
they have seen in this health care debate. But the worst is still 
ahead. The bill has already failed. The American people don't want it, 
and they are screaming at the top of their lungs, stop. But, yet, 
Congress continues to proceed.
  The American people want jobs. But what does this bill do? It puts 
the American people out of work. They want lower health care costs, 
while the health care bill being debated is going to raise the cost of 
premiums. They want less government, yet this bill is going to create a 
giant bureaucracy here in Washington. They want to protect life. Yet 
the bill is going to force taxpayers to fund elective abortions.
  If that weren't enough, the majority plans to force the toxic Senate 
bill through the House under some controversial trick. There is no way 
to hide from this vote. It will be the biggest vote that most Members 
ever cast. Now you can run, but you can't hide. Let's defeat this bill.
