I ask unanimous consent that all Members may have 5 legislative days within which to revise and extend their remarks and include extraneous material on the bill under consideration. The SPEAKER pro tempore. Is there objection to the…

Mr. Speaker, I would like to yield as much time as he may consume to the distinguished gentleman from California, the sponsor of the bill, Mr. Denham.

Governor Romney has been very successful. Get over it.

Mr. Speaker, this is a good, commonsense, bipartisan bill. I appreciate both these gentlemen who spoke here earlier for their work on this, Mr. Denham and Mr. Walz. The Veteran Skills to Jobs Act, H.R. 4155, it makes sense, it's good…

He's going to repeal it.

Actually the chief justice in his opinion made it very clear that at the state level, states have the power to put in place mandates.

Obamacare raises taxes on the American people.
