I need, we need, my constituents need this website to work. We need to enroll in the exchange.

I've signed onto a letter to you led by my colleague, Representative Raul Ruiz out of California, to request that you prioritize fraud-prevention efforts.

He shares my concern that these will harm the ability of the national labs in their research.

I want to thank you all for the opportunity today to speak about S. 1148, the Faster Filing Act.

Veterans of every generation can and do make good and rational decisions when they have timely and accurate data to help inform their decisionmaking.

I hope that we all agree we want this Web site fixed.

I think that the OMB's reaction might cause harm and not get to the real issue.

The faster Congress realizes that we are hurting millions of people across the country, that every single day, by failing to accomplish one of our fundamental responsibilities, the faster this senseless shutdown ends.

So, Mr. Jarvis, these are mostly rhetorical questions. I thank you for trying to make the best out of a very bad situation that Congress has created.

I think it's shameful that we are asking you to explain your decisions when we have the power to stop all of this nonsense, and we should do it immediately.

I disagree that this is the most useful time here and believe that we could do a much better job by supporting them to enhance these partnerships by having the resources to do so.

I think we've got to realize how much damage we are doing to ourselves.

If they do shut down, even if the rest of the country doesn't slip into a recession, every day that those labs are closed we get closer to recession in the State of New Mexico.

It would be easier to negotiate an outcome here if we knew what we were negotiating about.

I can guarantee you the only outcome of that will be that we have more debt and higher deficits because of that kind of irresponsible behavior.

Today, every Federal employee that is furloughed or government program that is disrupted as a result the government shutdown is a casualty in my colleagues on the other side of the aisle's effort or their war to kill the Affordable Care…

we ought to repeal Medicare Part D. Enrollment is tough
