OBAMACARE
(Mr. STEWART asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute.)
Mr. STEWART. Mr. Speaker, we have officially entered la-la land,
where the President thinks that by the mere power of his own voice he
can turn back time by simply announcing that he will no longer enforce
provisions within his own law. Think about that. The answer to fixing
this law is for him to announce that they won't enforce the law. That
tells you how desperate they are. His announcement today will only make
things worse, and it is the American people who will continue to pay.
I, like everyone who has spoken on the floor this afternoon, have
many examples of people who are being hurt today because of provisions
of ObamaCare. Amanda from Bountiful, Utah, within my district, has seen
her family's deductibles and the rate they will pay double.
Sundee from southern Utah has had her family's health plan entirely
canceled. As small business owners, they are scrambling now to try to
find something, some way in which they can maintain insurance for their
family.
President Obama repeatedly promised that if you have health
insurance, you can keep it. That promise has not been fulfilled. We
call upon him to do that today.
