                       SAVE AMERICAN WORKERS ACT

  (Mr. GRIFFIN of Arkansas asked and was given permission to address 
the House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. GRIFFIN of Arkansas. Madam Speaker, at a time when our economy is 
sluggish and job creation is stagnant, the last thing American workers 
can afford are reduced hours. Yet, because of the redefined 30-hour 
full-time employee definition in ObamaCare, that is exactly what many 
Americans are facing.
  In addition to higher premiums and canceled coverage, millions of 
Americans are at risk of losing hours. Many of them are women, young 
moms and dads, and those working hard to support their families and to 
make ends meet. Now they are paying the price for the President's 
broken health care law.
  The Save American Workers Act will help them. It will restore the 40-
hour workweek. It will help Americans bring home their paychecks, and 
it will provide relief to those who need it most.
