                               OBAMACARE

  (Mr. CAMP asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. CAMP. Mr. Speaker, today I rise on behalf of the people I 
represent in Michigan's Fourth District who are feeling the real impact 
of ObamaCare. They are paying more for health care, losing the coverage 
they have and like, and having their work hours cut.
  I have been receiving calls, emails, and letters from people worried 
about the negative impacts ObamaCare is having on their lives.

       My wife has been recently informed by her insurance carrier 
     that her health care policy ``does not comply with the 
     Affordable Care Act.'' Now we must purchase a new policy to 
     get the same coverage at an 18 percent increase in our 
     premium. So, what happened to the ``if you like your 
     insurance, you can keep it''?

  Unfortunately, Jeff's story isn't unique. He and an estimated 225,000 
people in the State of Michigan and millions of Americans across the 
country are losing the coverage they have and like because of 
ObamaCare.
  I urge my colleagues to join me in standing up against higher health 
care costs, dropped coverage, and reduced work hours that are hurting 
the constituents I serve in Michigan and Americans all across the 
country.
