I thank the chairman for taking up this important piece of legislation today. I also want to thank the gentleman from Texas (Mr. Doggett) for his leadership on this issue. When seniors require a hospital stay, they are rightfully more…

On rollcall No. 91 I was unavoidably detained. Had I been present, I would have voted ``aye.''

I want to thank the gentleman from Maryland for his hard work on this important amendment and for his leadership. Currently, teacher attrition costs the United States over $1 billion each year. Many teachers leave within the first 5 years…

I yield an additional 1 minute to the gentlewoman. Mrs. McMORRIS RODGERS. It ensures that students with disabilities who have taken alternative assessments cannot be prevented from receiving a regular diploma. These provisions will enhance…

I claim time in opposition, although I am supportive of the amendment. The Acting CHAIR. Without objection, the gentleman is recognized for 5 minutes. There was no objection.

I would like to elaborate on the chairman's retort to what we just heard about criticisms pertaining to this law. Number one, this law is inherently unfair. Trying to finance health insurance for some Americans by cutting hours and wages…

I thank the chairman for yielding. Mr. Speaker, I thank you so much for this opportunity to try to advance legislation to improve the Nation's health care law in a bipartisan fashion. You know, I don't understand the visceral resistance to…

Why wait? We know we are headed off a cliff here. This is a fiscally irresponsible provision within the Affordable Care Act. Who would imagine that we would try to insure 500,000 additional new workers at the expense of up to $105 billion…

Now, this isn't a Republican or a Democrat issue; this is a serious solution to a very real problem facing American workers. I urge all my colleagues to support the Save American Workers Act.

The legislation ensures that, when unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats in Washington enact rules and regs that impact our economy, these regulations will be voted on by Congress to ensure that your elected Representatives are held…

Well, I want to thank Chairman Reichert for holding this hearing today to discuss how social impact bonds can be an innovative tool to improve social and public health outcomes, save taxpayer resources, and unleash non-governmental…

This is the sort of big-idea, bipartisan initiative that we need more of in Washington, and he has helped make that happen here.

Instead of outcomes, we spend too much time talking about inputs.

This legislation, in fact, would change the definition of the full-time employee from 30 hours to 40 hours per week.

I support Healthy Indiana plan because I support the states' abilities, all of our states, to innovate and look for ways to improve the way that we provide health coverage to our disadvantaged and low-income citizens.

The House passed H.R. 2668, the Fairness for American Families Act, again by Representative Todd Young from Indiana.

I commend the gentleman and his team. Congratulations to the Democrats. The Republican side fought hard. We had a late surge, and we came up short by one goal, but this was for a greater cause than ourselves, promoting the sport of soccer…

These small businesses are the engine of American job creation. They create roughly three out of five American jobs that have been created over recent years. And one critical means of supporting American small businesses and working…

I thank my good friend, the chairman from Texas, for his leadership on this and so many other issues. I am a passionate proponent of free trade because we have the most productive workers in the world, the most productive businesses in the…

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I yield myself such time as I may consume. Mr. Speaker, as the Senate continues to push for a 25 percent increase in the Federal minimum wage, they continue to ignore that millions of hourly workers face as much as…

I would just build upon Representative Pascrell's comments pertaining to intellectual property protection.

I submit for the Record letters of support for the Save American Workers Act from The Associated General Contractors of America on behalf of their workers and their members, and also a letter by the National Franchisee Association on…

I submit for the record a letter of support for the Save American Workers Act from the National Grocers Association on behalf of their members and on behalf of their workers, and I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr…

It is clear that this bill, the Affordable Care Act that the President calls ObamaCare, clearly would not insure every American in the country. Dropping somebody from 39 hours down to 29 hours is effectively a loss of 10 hours of work per…

I submit for the Record a letter of support from the International Franchise Association for this bill, and I now yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Indiana (Mr. Bucshon), a member of the Education and Workforce Committee. International…
