Mr. Speaker, I rise to bring attention to the burden ObamaCare has placed upon my constituents. They have seen their healthcare costs rise while their quality of care has lowered. It is imperative that we repeal ObamaCare immediately. I also emphasize to the folks here and at home that, as we repeal ObamaCare, we will make sure there is a stable transition period during the replacement so that people do not have the rug pulled out from under them. This transition period will give us the time we need to ensure our healthcare reform is full of truly patient-centered solutions that allow patients, families, and doctors to direct their health care. Congress must focus on the principles of affordability, accessibility, and quality to provide the American people with genuine healthcare reform, but we can only get to that point by repealing ObamaCare now. I promise to read the bill before voting on it, unlike how it was passed. ____________________
