                           HEALTH CARE REFORM

  (Mr. YOUNG of Alaska asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. YOUNG of Alaska. Madam Speaker, we talk about reform--we're for 
reform and you're for reform. But 2,700 pages of what? 2,700 pages. The 
Bible only has 1,341 pages in it.
  Let me give you an example on page 752 of this bill. Let me read it 
to you:
  ``Eligibility for non-traditional individuals with income below 133 
percent of the Federal poverty level. (1) In general. Section 
1902(a)(10)(A)(i) of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 
1396b(a)(10)(A)(i) is amended by striking ``or'' at the end of 
subclause (VI); by adding ``or'' at the end of subclause (VII); and by 
adding at the end the following new subclause: (VIII) who are under 65 
years of age, who are not described in previous subclauses of this 
clause, and who are in families whose income (determined using 
methodologies and procedures specified by the Secretary in consultation 
with the Health Choices Commissioner) does not exceed 1331 3 percent of 
the income official poverty line (as defined by the Office of 
Management and Budget, and revised annually in accordance with section 
673(2) of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1981).
  Now, did anybody understand that?
