                     FIX HEALTH CARE THE RIGHT WAY

  (Mr. ROE of Tennessee asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. ROE of Tennessee. Mr. Speaker, next week the Supreme Court is 
expected to rule on the constitutionality of President Obama's health 
care law.
  While we don't yet know the outcome, there are things that we do 
know. We know that no matter what happens, you'll still be able to see 
your doctor, the emergency room will still treat you if you're in an 
accident or have a problem, and the pharmacy down the street will fill 
your prescription.
  We know that the American people don't want government bureaucrats 
making their health care decisions, but they do want us to address real 
problems like skyrocketing costs of care or the challenges that many 
people are having of finding a physician.
  We all know this law must be repealed. In its place, we must adopt 
reforms that will lower the cost of care, increase access, and enhance 
the quality. This must be done in a transparent, bipartisan way.
  No matter what the Court determines, our work here has just begun. As 
representatives of the American

people, we have a responsibility to fix health care in the right way.
