STOP THE OBSTRUCTION AND BE PART OF THE SOLUTION
(Mr. LOWENTHAL asked and was given permission to address the House
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. LOWENTHAL. Mr. Speaker, the healthcare.gov Web site glitches are
truly unacceptable, and they must be fixed as quickly as possible.
However, the majority party is not talking about fixing the Web site.
They are fixated on criticizing the Affordable Care Act instead of
helping the American public understand the act and receive the benefits
of true affordable care.
Countless hours in committees, over 40 votes to repeal and delay, and
millions of taxpayer dollars have been spent on delaying, defunding and
undermining this law. Throwing sticks into the spokes of the law will
not help to make it better. I urge my colleagues to stop the
obstruction and to be part of the solution.
