  Mr. ANDREWS. Madam Speaker, I have a motion to recommit at the desk.

  Mr. ANDREWS. I am.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Clerk will report the motion to

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to the rule, the gentleman from New 
Jersey is recognized for 5 minutes in support of the motion.
  (Mr. ANDREWS asked and was given permission to revise and extend his 
remarks.)
  Mr. ANDREWS. Madam Speaker, if my amendment passes, we will proceed 
immediately to final passage of this bill. It doesn't delay or defer 
consideration in any way.
  My amendment raises the following question: Should Members of 
Congress live by the same laws we write for everyone else?
  I say we should.
  The last 2 days have been filled with sincere focus and passionate 
debate about the future of the Affordable Care Act. Members whom I 
respect and admire have taken strong positions saying we should repeal 
the law. Members whom I respect and admire have taken strong positions 
saying we should uphold and enforce the law, as I believe strongly.
  But whether you believe in the repeal of the law or the upholding of 
the law, you ought to believe in the basic principle that when we write 
a law around here, we should live by that law the same way everybody 
else does. So my final amendment says that supporters of repeal should 
live by the same consequences that everyone else will live by if they 
succeed in repealing the law.
  You see, because if my amendment does not pass and the bill passes, 
Members of Congress will be protected if an insurance company tries to 
discriminate against us because we have had breast cancer or asthma or 
diabetes, but our constituents will not enjoy that protection.
  If my amendment does not pass but the underlying repeal bill does 
pass, Members of Congress cannot be forced to pay higher premiums 
because they are female or because they are a certain age, but our 
constituents will not enjoy that protection.
  If the final bill passes without my amendment passing, we will be 
able to take our sons and daughters who are less than 26 years of age 
and keep them on our own policies, but the people who pay our salaries, 
our constituents, will not have that protection.
  If the underlying repeal bill passes without the amendment that I'm 
offering, then we would, as Members of Congress, get help paying high 
prescription drug bills under Medicare, but our constituents under 
Medicare would not enjoy that same benefit.
  If my amendment does not pass, and the underlying repeal bill passes, 
if, God forbid, a member of our families is struck with a horrible 
disease or malignancy and runs up millions of dollars of bills, the 
insurance company will not be allowed to say, ``Sorry, we're going to 
stop paying your health care bills because you've run up against a 
lifetime or annual policy limit,'' but Members of Congress will have 
that protection.
  So, you see, I think this comes down to a basic point: If we write a 
law, we should live by it. This is something that I think most Members, 
liberal, conservative, Republican, Democrat, say when we go home to our 
district.
  We, frankly, have all encountered constituents who wonder why we 
don't pay into Social Security. The truth is we all do--we all do--just 
the way our constituents do.
  We run into constituents who say that they don't understand why our 
sons and daughters can pay off their student loans or get them forgiven 
for free when their kids can't. That's false. Our sons and daughters 
live under exactly the same student loan rules everybody else does.
  We have people ask us, you know, how come we don't follow the tax 
laws everybody else does. We most certainly do. Republican, Democrat, 
liberal, and

[[Page H4807]]

conservative live by exactly the same laws that we write.

                              {time}  1510

  I don't think we should make an exception to that policy here. And if 
you don't vote for this final underlying amendment--and I think we all 
should--if you don't vote for this final underlying amendment, 
understand what happens. Members of Congress are protected against 
preexisting conditions, but our constituents aren't. Members of 
Congress are permitted to have our sons and daughters on our policies 
until they're 26, but our constituents can't. Members of Congress can't 
be charged more for premiums because of their age or their gender, but 
our constituents can. Members of Congress under Medicare would get 
certain rights and privileges and their prescription drugs, but our 
seniors and constituents can't.
  I think whether we agree or disagree with the Affordable Care Act, we 
all ought to agree with this principle: When Congress writes a law, we 
should all live by it.
  So I would respectfully say to my friends, both Republican and 
Democrat, if you believe in the law you're having to vote for today, 
then vote to live under it as well. Vote ``yes'' on this motion to 
recommit.
  I yield back the balance of my time.
  Mr. CANTOR. Madam Speaker, I rise in opposition to the motion to 
recommit.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The gentleman from Virginia is recognized 
for 5 minutes.
  Mr. CANTOR. Thank you, Madam Speaker.
  First of all, I would say to the gentleman, my friend from New 
Jersey, we on this side of the aisle care about the health care of the 
American people. That's why we're here. That's why I brought this bill 
forward, along with and on behalf of my colleagues. It is not about 
Members of Congress. It is not about trying to say that you get health 
care and we don't get health care.
  This is a dire situation for millions of Americans. There are so many 
things going on right now--critical, critical needs out there across 
this country where people are out of work, people don't have their 
health care. People are hurting. And for us to sit here and discuss a 
motion to recommit like this, I just don't think, Madam Speaker, it is 
what the American people would like us to be doing. It is about health 
care for Americans.
  Most Americans do have health care. Most Americans like the health 
care they have, but it's just too expensive. And more and more 
Americans are going to go without health care because of this law. And 
as the President said when he first started this discussion in 2009, 
Americans that have health care and like it should be able to keep it. 
Well, that is clearly a promise that's been broken. And we are trying 
to end the era of broken promises. We are trying to end the era of 
Washington-controlled health care.
  We believe, as do most of the American people, that patient-centered 
care is our goal. That's where we need to start. We start along the 
path towards that goal by repealing ObamaCare. ObamaCare has added cost 
upon cost. In fact, the average American family, in terms of the 
premiums that they pay, has paid a premium increase of approximately 
$1,200 since the passage of ObamaCare. In fact, the CBO estimates that 
insurance premiums for individuals buying private health coverage on 
their own will increase by $2,100 in 2016 compared to what the premiums 
would have been if the law had not passed. This is why, when study 
after study is showing that people are not able to keep the health care 
they like, it's because of the cost. People aren't able to afford it. 
The employers are unable to afford it.
  We are after patient-centered care. We are after affordable care. And 
we are trying to improve and enlarge the access to care. ObamaCare 
fails on all those fronts.
  So, Madam Speaker, it is not a game to be played, as is evident in 
this motion to recommit. It is about the American people and that 
health care.
  Madam Speaker, I urge my colleagues to vote against the motion to 
recommit and urge them instead to vote for the passage of repeal of 
ObamaCare.
  I yield back the balance of my time.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Without objection, the previous question is 
ordered on the motion to recommit.
  There was no objection.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The question is on the motion to recommit.
  The question was taken; and the Speaker pro tempore announced that 
the noes appeared to have it.
  Mr. ANDREWS. Madam Speaker, on that I demand the yeas and nays.
  The yeas and nays were ordered.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Pursuant to clause 8 and clause 9 of rule 
XX, this 15-minute vote on the motion to recommit will be followed by 
5-minute votes on passage of the bill, if ordered, and adoption of 
House Resolution 726.
  The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--yeas 180, 
nays 248, not voting 3, as follows:
