            OBAMACARE: THE WORST LEGISLATION IN OUR LIFETIME

  (Mr. WILLIAMS asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. WILLIAMS. Madam Speaker, 41, 19, 5, and zero. Madam Speaker, the 
House has voted 41 times to defund, dismantle, and repeal the 
President's disastrous health care law. Nineteen provisions of 
ObamaCare have been repealed or delayed. The Obama administration has 
delayed five significant provisions of the law. And Harry Reid and the 
Senate have not once brought a vote to the Senate floor.
  Madam Speaker, as a business owner, I know that businesses don't want 
ObamaCare. They are being forced to cut employees and hours. Labor 
unions don't want the law. They've unsuccessfully lobbied the White 
House to be exempt. Families don't want it. They're seeing their 
premiums skyrocket and their current health care plans disappear. Even 
IRS agents, tasked with implementing and enforcing the law, don't want 
it. IRS Acting Commissioner Daniel Werfel said IRS employees don't want 
changes to their health care. And the majority of Americans don't want 
it. Everybody is seeking exemptions.
  Madam Speaker, today the House will vote for the 42nd time to defund 
ObamaCare and keep the government running while the Senate has yet to 
act. Now is the time for our Senators to stand up and demand Harry Reid 
bring this vote to the floor. America is waiting on them to join us in 
our fight to get rid of ObamaCare, the worst legislation in our 
lifetime.
