RESCUING AMERICANS FROM THE TRACKS OF HEALTH CARE DESTRUCTION
(Mr. GRIFFITH of Virginia asked and was given permission to address
the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. GRIFFITH of Virginia. Ladies and gentlemen, let me tell you why
people would vote to repeal the Affordable Care Act. It has become
very, very clear that no matter how well-intentioned it may have been,
it will not work. Time after time, we are finding that the things that
they told us just aren't panning out to be true; and Senator Max
Baucus, one of the law's main architects, recently described ObamaCare
as a huge train wreck coming down.
We have a chance to save Americans from being casualties of the train
wreck. We can yank them off the tracks. Today, I voted to show that I
am trying to do just that.
I call on the United States Senate and the Senators to join us in
rescuing the American people from the tracks of health care
destruction.
