                            REPEAL OBAMACARE

  (Mr. JOHNSON of Ohio asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. JOHNSON of Ohio. Mr. Speaker, last week, the President quietly 
decided to delay a major part of what many media pundits consider his 
crowning achievement: ObamaCare. The President is telling businesses 
that they will be given a year reprieve from complying with ObamaCare's 
onerous and costly employer mandate. The President is once again 
picking which laws his administration enforces and which ones he 
chooses not to. He's also picking winners and losers again. Employers 
will have another year to comply with the employer mandate, but 
President Obama has decided that individuals--the middle class--will 
not be given more time to comply with the individual mandate.
  Meanwhile, the economy continues to limp along with businesses, large 
and small, afraid to hire more workers because the cost of doing 
business continues to go up without a clear end in sight. High taxes, 
enormous tax burdens, and the specter of ObamaCare continue to hang 
over them like a storm cloud. For the good of our Nation, ObamaCare 
must be repealed and replaced.
