                NETWORKS IGNORE COURT BLOW TO OBAMACARE

  (Mr. SMITH of Texas asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. SMITH of Texas. Mr. Speaker, recently a U.S. District Court judge 
ruled that the administration's subsidy funding scheme for ObamaCare 
was unconstitutional. This marked a major victory in citizens' efforts 
to stop the President's failed healthcare law. However, the ruling was 
ignored by all three major news networks, leaving many Americans in the 
dark on the latest development involving ObamaCare.
  Last year it was revealed that ObamaCare created or hiked at least 13 
different taxes. However, all three major networks also largely ignored 
this increased burden on taxpayers.
  It is no wonder that only 6 percent of Americans trust the media to 
give them balanced news. Americans deserve all of the facts about the 
President's failed healthcare law. The liberal national media should 
not ignore important information just because it conflicts with their 
political agenda.
