I thank the gentleman for his remarks. I would like to speak briefly about broken ObamaCare promise number four. The President promised ``Under my plan, no family making less than $250,000 a year will see their taxes increase.'' The truth? Taxes have gone up for many, and not just the well-off. The Joint Committee on Taxation has issued a report detailing 21 new or higher taxes that will cost taxpayers more than $1 trillion. Indiana, which has a medical device industry that employs 20,000 Hoosiers, with a payroll exceeding $1 billion, would be devastated by ObamaCare's $20 billion tax on medical devices. I would next like to recognize my good friend from Indiana--I appreciate her leadership on this topic--Mrs. Walorski.
