        SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES OF THE IMPLEMENTATION OF OBAMACARE

  (Mr. MARCHANT asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. MARCHANT. Mr. Speaker, it seems like each day a new study or 
report is released that finds serious consequences coming from 
ObamaCare's implementation.
  The law is already hurting job creation. This was evidenced in the 
latest jobs report, which showed an increase in the number of part-time 
workers and a decrease in the average number of hours worked each week.
  This law is also raising insurance premiums, increasing deficits, and 
will reduce the quality of health care for Americans across the 
country.
  Opposition to this law is bipartisan. In fact, a recent Fox News poll 
found that 56 percent of people that identified themselves as Democrats 
were against the thousands of pages of ObamaCare regulations and called 
them ``way over the top.''
  We must now repeal this law and get to work on reforms that lower 
costs, improve the quality of care, and protect jobs.
