OBAMACARE
(Mrs. LUMMIS asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute.)
Mrs. LUMMIS. Mr. Speaker, my State of Wyoming is projected to have
the highest average premiums under ObamaCare of any State in the Nation
that is subject to the Federal exchange; by far, the highest rate of
any State in the Nation.
Is it any wonder that because my State has the smallest population in
the Nation that I would fight for not one-size-fits-all, top-down, Big
Government solutions, but State-based solutions, health care that is
negotiated between the patient and the doctor.
Yet ObamaCare has taken place today; it has taken effect. It is the
law of the land, and I will abide by it; but Congress should not have
an illegal subsidy under ObamaCare. House Republicans want to get rid
of the illegal subsidy for Congress under ObamaCare. That is what we
demand.
