“I thank the gentleman for yielding. Madam Speaker, I rise in strong opposition to this bill. A new poll today suggests that the 9-9-9 campaign theme of the new Republican Presidential front-runner is starting to gain traction. And it appears that the majority has taken a page from the Cain playbook with their 10-10-10 program, because this is the 10th month without a jobs bill on the floor, the 10th time we've put polarizing social issues and attacks on women's health before job creation and economic security, and the 10th attempt at repealing parts or all of the Affordable Care Act. This bill creates no jobs, it doesn't help the economy, and it inserts the government smack in the middle of people's health care decisions. I urge a ``no'' vote on this bill and urge the majority to get to work helping the economy and creating jobs.”
