RESTORING THE CONSTITUTION
(Mrs. WALORSKI asked and was given permission to address the House
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
Mrs. WALORSKI. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to take a stand against
bureaucracy run amok. Every day I hear from hardworking Hoosiers,
small-business owners, and family farmers buried under red tape. They
feel like their government is actively working against them. From
ObamaCare, to the EPA, to many other agencies, the Obama administration
has been churning out complex and costly regulations. This has to stop.
We can't have small business, farmers, and other engines of our
economy held back by the threat of a regulator knocking on their door.
That is why we have a plan to restore the Constitution. House
Republicans recently released our plan for A Better Way to make our
government more accountable and transparent and give power back to the
people.
Today we are also taking an important step toward reining in
regulators and rebuilding the checks and balances our Founding Fathers
intended with the Separation of Powers Restoration Act. Mr. Speaker,
with this bill, and our A Better Way agenda, the House is standing up
for the people against out-of-control bureaucracy.
