REPEAL OBAMACARE IN WHOLE OR IN PART
(Ms. FOXX asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
Ms. FOXX. Mr. Speaker, this Friday marks the second anniversary of
ObamaCare.
Since that day 2 years ago, we've seen multiple reports and heard
firsthand the disastrous effects of the law that allowed the Federal
Government to take over our health care system. People in the Fifth
District of North Carolina tell me they're worried about the cost of
health care and about the 15-person board that will be making decisions
about their health care.
The President and Democrats said, ``If you like your health care
plan, you can keep it.'' But now we know this is not the case. The
Independent Payment Advisory Board will pick and choose what should be
cut from Medicare medical services. And they will do so without any
accountability to the American people, to Congress, or to even the
President.
As we prepare to vote on another bill that would repeal another part
of this

disastrous law, we should remember that Americans should have the
freedom to make their own health care decisions, Mr. Speaker, and
ObamaCare takes that away.
It's time to repeal ObamaCare for good, either in whole or in part.
