 IF YOU LIKE YOUR HEALTH INSURANCE PLAN, YOU CAN KEEP IT--WITHOUT THE 
                               FINE PRINT

  (Mr. MARCHANT asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. MARCHANT. Mr. Speaker, if you like your health insurance plan, 
you can keep it--without the fine print.
  The American people were told repeatedly by the President that if 
they liked their health insurance plan, they could keep it. This pledge 
didn't come with an asterisk, a footnote, or other fine print. Now, 
after millions of Americans are receiving cancelation notices from 
their preferred health care plans, the White House is doing its best to 
insert fine print into this pledge where none ever existed.
  The original pledge wasn't that most Americans could keep their 
health care plan or that others would lose their plans and be given 
coverage that the government thought was better for them. Instead, the 
White House is making excuses for why thousands of people in my 
district are losing their preferred coverage.
  I ask for the administration to stop making excuses and looking for 
ways to take my constituents' policies away. My constituents deserve 
the truth and real solutions.
