       OPPOSITION TO THE PAIN-CAPABLE UNBORN CHILD PROTECTION ACT

  (Ms. FRANKEL of Florida asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. FRANKEL of Florida. Mr. Speaker, my, my, my; talk about pain. 
There's lots of pain in our country--mothers and fathers are out of 
work, losing homes, bills piling up--but here we go again: another day 
in Congress being squandered as we fight once more about women having 
access to the medical care we need, free from the long, invasive arm of 
government. And again, there's a cruel unconstitutional twist. Under 
the newly minted H.R. 1797, a woman in desperate need of a physician 
must instead call the police.
  Mr. Speaker, the American people know that there's a better way to 
protect life. Allow women to have access to the health care that we 
require to live full lives, and let's work together in a bipartisan 
manner to get people back to work in this country.
