OBAMACARE CHOICE ACT OF 2013
(Mr. BARTON asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. BARTON. Madam Speaker, I rise to announce to my colleagues in the
House that I just introduced H.R. 3348, the ObamaCare Choice Act of
2013.
This is a simple 1\1/2\-page bill. It simply lets the American people
choose for the next year whether they want to participate in what we
commonly call ObamaCare. If it is as good as the President says it is,
people will join and get the benefits from it. If, on the other hand,
they can't get the software fixed, the policy mandates are
unsustainable, and the costs are too high, the American people will
choose not to participate. It is a simple bill that makes participation
voluntary by suspending the tax for nonparticipation.
So I would encourage all of my colleagues to join as a cosponsor of
H.R. 3348, the ObamaCare Choice Act of 2013.
