                  TRUE COSTS OF OBAMACARE ARE EXPOSED

  (Mr. WILSON of South Carolina asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Madam Speaker, during the President's 
effort to lobby for the government takeover of health care, he promised 
the American people his proposal would cost $940 billion and ``won't 
add a dime to the deficit and is paid for upfront.''
  The Washington Examiner editorialized last week the President ``knew 
the funny numbers his administration was putting out,'' but delivered a 
speech with blunders anyway.
  Last week, the Congressional Budget Office released a report stating 
that ObamaCare will cost $1.76 trillion, a figure almost double the 
initial price tag that he promised.
  Based on these reports, it is clear that the false claims are being 
exposed. House Republicans have already voted to repeal the 
unconstitutional government takeover of health care, which the NFIB has 
said it will destroy 1.6 million jobs. The Senate now needs to vote.
  In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget 
September the 11th in the global war on terrorism.
