Mr. President, promises, promises, promises. Day in and day out, I hear stories of the broken promises of the President's failed health care law in Iowa and across the country. President Obama promised health insurance premiums would go…

I want to ask you on the record here, if you would produce the records, not only for children that apply for asylum, for all the asylees that apply, I'd like to see the results of that, the adjudication process, where it is, how many are…
