                           HEALTH CARE REFORM

  (Ms. JENKINS asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. JENKINS. There are many problems with the Senate's government 
takeover of health care, problems with cuts to Medicare, problems with 
the Cornhusker kickback, problems with the massive job-killing taxes, 
problems with Federal funding of abortion, but the latest problem is 
that the majority doesn't have the votes to pass it.

[[Page 3519]]

  Rather than finally listening to the American people's rejection of 
this misguided bill, the majority is planning to abuse the legislative 
process to pass their government takeover without a single up-or-down 
vote.
  As a mom, I would never allow my kids to deem their rooms clean; so 
it is disgraceful that the majority plans to deem their $2.5 trillion 
government takeover of health care as passed without a vote as provided 
for in the Constitution.
  I urge my colleagues to do the truly courageous thing and demand a 
clean vote.
