I thank Representative Bishop of Michigan. One of the numbers my friend just mentioned was 8 out of 10. Nearly 80 percent, according to Gallup, believe this law should be overhauled or completely repealed. So I ask people watching tonight and my friends across the aisle: Are we to do nothing? In fact, even in the press conference today, President-elect Trump said that, if we did nothing, it would continue to fail. But we have an obligation to stand up and do what is right. We can't do nothing. People are suffering--in fact, suffering to the place that even recently a couple months ago a Minnesota Governor was honest enough to talk about how it has damaged small business. Goodness gracious, even a former Democratic President has acknowledged the destruction it has caused for individuals and small businesses. No one knows more about what it does to our States than individual Representatives. One of the fine gentlemen that is speaking tonight is Representative French Hill. He is one of the sharper minds that we have had as part of the 114th class that I have been privileged to meet and serve with for the last 2 years. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentleman from Arkansas (Mr. Hill).

I thank the ranking member for his work. Mr. Chair, I rise today in opposition to H.R. 1. While my colleagues on the other side of the aisle have deemed this bill to be ``for the people,'' a more proper characterization would be ``for the…
