In Larimer County, a manufacturing company is going to have to hire new people to comply with the provisions of this act. Is that the kind of job creation this body is looking for? Let's create penalties on business and hope that it drives…

I define benefits by protecting the environment that has been given to us, providing affordable healthcare to those that want it, while at the same time keeping Americans at work, and allowing businesses to prosper.
Congress can't get both the House and the Senate to pass a bill so the Administration does it, and they do it without having a process through Congress.
The people speak through their representatives and then the Administration circumvents the people's representative.
I am here to talk about jobs. I want to highlight a story about what is happening to one company in my district when it comes to this health care bill... It is time for this Congress to act to fulfill the promise it made to America, the…

Mr. Speaker, today I am glad to support a resolution that puts away the knives of politics and instead pulls out the shears of budget cutting. Thank you to Representative Walden for your work on the transition committee to again restore…
