                           HEALTH CARE REFORM

  (Mr. MILLER of Florida asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. MILLER of Florida. Madam Speaker, the health care reform debate 
has become a farce, and I am outraged. I am outraged at this proposed 
law. I am outraged at the process. I am outraged at the majority 
party's sham of a health care bill. But I'm not the only one. The 
American people are outraged. Americans have marched, they have 
protested and they have written letters and they have made phone calls. 
Americans have spoken, Madam Speaker, and they do not want this health 
care bill.
  But the worst part about it is that we may not even vote on it. The 
majority party wants to deem the Senate bill passed and then hope that 
the Senate changes the bill later. Was this the hope and the change 
that we can all believe in? Madam Speaker, this has become a 
legislative sleight of hand, a gimmick, a parlor trick.

  I urge my colleagues to listen to the American people and kill this 
bill.
