                            REPEAL OBAMACARE

  (Ms. FOXX asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Ms. FOXX. Mr. Speaker, yesterday, the Supreme Court heard arguments 
in the Hobby Lobby case. This business is simply asking that owners' 
rights under the Religious Freedom Restoration Act are respected.
  In an ironic bit of timing, the administration just effectively 
waived the March 31 deadline for signing up for an ObamaCare plan.
  Despite President Obama's continuous extra-legal rewriting of his 
health care law, he remains unwilling to accommodate religious 
businessowners who are providing health care coverage for employees.
  Yesterday also brought a news report from North Carolina of 200 
substitute teachers having their hours cut in order to comply with 
ObamaCare mandates. The teachers' plight is not unique.
  As Republicans noted during the original debate over this law, 
putting the government in charge of 1/7th of the economy is a recipe 
for disaster.
  We need to repeal ObamaCare and enact health reform that empowers 
patients, not bureaucrats.
