My colleagues, this is a bill that is special for one company in order for it to sell off the batches of the Primatene Mist that it has on stock. This is a product that's not on the market now--it was taken off the market--and there are…

the Affordable Care Act is the law of the land. We should all be united in seeing that its implementation works.

The ACA has been law for nearly 3 years now. It has an impressive list of accomplishments, and the basic reforms are still ahead of us.

Well, it just shows, if we have more insurance companies willing to offer insurance policies, the competitive model for the consumer choice is going to be more successful under those circumstances.

I doubt that a block grant would accomplish those goals.

First of all, I want to address some of these issues myself, and then I will yield to others who want to speak. There is an environmental problem along with this medical problem. The environmental problem is that there is a deterioration…

Let us not buy into this next line of attack that the law must be delayed. Let us recognize that we have got a law.

The law advances unlicensed use in several ways: It allows the FCC to use the existing white spaces in the broadcast band for unlicensed use.

Why do you think that start-ups, innovators, technology companies, many of which populate Miss Eshoo's district and my district, care so much about unlicensed spectrum?

I have no further requests for time on my side of the aisle to support this legislation. I know that almost all Democrats that I have talked to think it's a good bill. I have urged the others to join with them in supporting it. I think…

I am pleased at this time to yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from Vermont (Mr. Welch), who is going to be joining again the Energy and Commerce Committee to my great delight.

I am pleased at this time to yield 3 minutes to the gentleman from Missouri (Mr. Carnahan).

The United States and the world are facing an enormous and growing threat: The pollution we are putting into the atmosphere is changing the climate around us. In this last year alone, New York City has been flooded by a superstorm, the…

Healthcare fraud robs taxpayers of funds, affects the quality of care provided to program enrollees, and saps the public confidence in the program.
