  (Mr. NUGENT asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. NUGENT. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to remind the United States 
Senate that although this country has turned a corner on the economy, 
there are millions of Americans who are out of work. And as we inch 
closer every day towards the implementation of ObamaCare, these 
businesses are at risk. Jobs are on the line, Mr. Speaker. Precious 
employment hours are on the line.
  There are steps this House has taken over the last 2\1/2\ years. We 
have voted almost 40 times to repeal and replace ObamaCare with 
something special. We've passed bills here in the House for over 400 
votes, and those bills to help small businesses have withered on the 
vine in the Senate.
  So while the White House continues to stumble from scandal to 
scandal, it's still incumbent upon the President to show leadership as 
it relates to jobs. There are bills waiting for consideration in the 
Senate that will make a very real difference to the American people.
  The House has done and will continue to do everything possible to put 
American people back to work, and this cannot be done alone. We need 
the Senate and the President to work with us, Mr. Speaker.
