Mr. Speaker, today the Republicans are doing something that goes against what was promised in the campaign, and that was that everyone would have insurance, the insurance would be better, and it would cost less. But, instead, we are going in the opposite direction. Less people are going to have insurance; 24 million are being kicked off. It is going to cost more for the insurance, and you are going to get less insurance coverage than what you are paying for. It is a total disaster what they are trying to do here.
