               DELAYING INDIVIDUAL AND EMPLOYER MANDATES

  (Mr. MESSER asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. MESSER. ObamaCare is not working. The American people know that. 
Now, it seems President Obama knows that, too.
  The President's unilateral decision to violate the law and delay the 
employer mandate postpones some of the law's worst damage for 
businesses. Fundamental fairness dictates that individuals get the same 
reprieve. Some say delay gives the administration time to get it right. 
I say no amount of time will fix what's wrong with this job-killing 
law.
  Each day this law is delayed gives us more time to seek its total 
repeal. We must protect as many people as possible from the pain this 
Big Government behemoth is inflicting on our Nation.
