OBAMACARE DECISION DISCOURAGING FOR SMALL BUSINESSES
(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. Mr. Speaker, yesterday's decision by
the Supreme Court to uphold ObamaCare is discouraging for America's
small businesses by destroying jobs and threatening families with the
loss of their insurance policies.
When the President lobbied for the passage of the 2,700-page health
care takeover, he promised Americans that the individual mandate was
not a tax increase. Chief Justice Roberts based his opinion on his view
that it is a tax increase, which contradicts the President as being
incorrect.
Chief Justice Roberts and the four liberals now confirm the President
has been inaccurate. Not only will this tax place more hardship on
small businesses to follow the law, but already 12,000 pages of
regulations have been issued with more than 150 new boards, agencies,
and programs destroying jobs.
On July 11, the House of Representatives, under the leadership of
John Boehner and Eric Cantor, will vote to repeal the Obama taxes. On
November 6, American citizens will have the opportunity to vote for
repeal and reform.
In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget
September the 11th in the global war on terrorism.
