                           HEALTH CARE REFORM

  (Mr. CANTOR asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. CANTOR. Madam Speaker, Republicans have come to the floor today 
because we care about Americans' health care. We just don't care for 
this bill. But still, the majority seems committed to trying to muscle 
through a trillion-dollar overhaul that will change health care for 
every man, woman, and child.
  Americans have made it very clear. They don't like this bill. They 
don't want the government in the decision-making of their health care. 
They want lower costs, and they don't want their government tax dollars 
going to fund abortion services.
  So why can't we start over, Madam Speaker? We ask again. There has 
been a year and a half nearly of debate over this and still more 
questions than answers. That's why we are hearing reports that the 
majority will try to ram this through without a direct vote on the 
Senate bill, Madam Speaker. We should take an up-or-down vote on the 
Senate bill.
