I yield now to the gentlewoman from Ohio, Jean Schmidt. I don't think there has been a single battle on the life issue that she has not been speaking out in front, speaking in defense of the unborn and their mothers.

I thank my friend for her statement and for her leadership. I yield to Tim Huelskamp, who took the baton from Jerry Moran, who has gone on to the Senate, and thank him for joining us tonight and look forward to his comments.

Thank you so much for your statement and for your emphasis on adoption, an alternative that is often forgotten, and it provides such a meaningful way for building a family. Thank you for that. I yield to Marlin Stutzman, the distinguished…

I thank you for your very fine statement and very strong commitment to the sanctity of human life. I would like to now yield to Ann Marie Buerkle who is both a nurse, but also got her law degree. So she brings both the law and the medicine…

Mr. Schilling, thank you very much for your great statement. And your comments about your child saying, who will defend the baby? I remember a woman by the name of Jean Garton who was with Lutherans for Life. She was preparing a slide show…

I do thank the gentlelady for her very powerful and eloquent statement in defense of the innocent unborn child. Mr. Speaker, earlier today, an abortionist in Philadelphia, Dr. Kermit Gosnell, was arrested and charged in the death of a…

I thank the gentleman for his leadership and the expertise of being an OB-GYN who has been there and knows better than almost all of us how sacred and fragile the life is of an unborn child, as well as his or her mother. I would like to…

Thank you, Mr. Lankford, for your very powerful statement. I would like to now yield to my good friend and colleague from Georgia, a medical doctor as well, Dr. Paul Broun.

Dr. Broun, thank you for your eloquence and your kind remarks, and I want to thank you for your leadership. Again, as a medical doctor, I think you and Dr. Roe and the other docs bring such credibility. I hope Americans are listening. I…

I thank the gentlelady for her statement and for her leadership. This class, and I think the American public would really appreciate this, of 87 Members elected on this side of the aisle, they are overwhelmingly pro-life, and more pro-life…

I thank the gentleman for yielding. There is not one Member of Congress in these distinguished Halls that has not been called upon to help a constituent who has been threatened to have their insurance taken away from them. Whether it was…

That means that the people of Texas pay, the people of New Jersey pay, the people of California pay. In essence, everyone pays for those who don't have insurance. Let's get straight on this. We can't afford this, and we must reject repeal.

It is my distinct privilege to yield to Martha Roby, a new Member who was just elected. And she's an outstanding pro-life woman, a Member of Congress. And we're just so pleased to have her in the caucus.

I respectfully ask that my colleagues listen to the American people and vote for H.R. 2, legislation to repeal Obamacare and, in essence, open the door to the passage of replacement legislation that offers needed, meaningful and bipartisan…

At this time, Mr. Speaker, I would like to yield 2 minutes to the dean of the House of Representatives and the House sponsor of the health reform legislation, the gentleman from Michigan (Mr. Dingell). (Mr. DINGELL asked and was given…

I yield myself 2 minutes. Mr. Speaker, I wanted to thank my colleague from Florida, who just spoke, for saying and admitting that health care reform does create jobs, because, if you listen to the Republicans, they have been saying over…

I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Washington (Mr. Inslee). (Mr. INSLEE asked and was given permission to revise and extend his remarks.)
