                  STOP CENSORING THE HEALTH CARE CHART

  (Mr. BRADY of Texas asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. BRADY of Texas. Mr. Speaker, what is the Speaker trying to hide? 
Last week, America got the first peek at what the Democratic 
government-run health care plan would look like; and what people saw, 
based upon the economists on the minority staff of the Joint Economic 
Committee, was 31 new Federal programs, agencies, commissions and 
mandates in between them and their doctors ensuring that unelected 
bureaucrats would choose what doctors they can see, what treatments 
they deserve and what medicines they can receive. This is not the type 
of health care system Americans want.
  But today, the Democrat House is blocking Republicans from sharing 
this important flow chart with their constituents. Why are we censoring 
the American Congress? Why are we preventing the public from seeing 
what the Democrat health care plan will do? We deserve, our public 
deserves the right to know what this health care will do to their lives 
and their family's lives.
  It is time to let America know. Stop the censoring. Let us share the 
health care chart with our constituents.
