I thank the gentleman for yielding. I rise in opposition to this bill to repeal. Last year, we acted to reform health care in America to make it easier for small businesses to cover their employees, to take important steps to bring down…

I thank the gentleman from Arizona for yielding. Madam Speaker, this week, we pause the work of the House to mourn the lost lives of six of our fellow citizens--one of those born on that day of tragedy and carnage when thousands were slain…

I appreciate the gentleman's comment, and briefly in closing, Madam Speaker, let me say this. I hope we can cooperate, but we do have a divergence, as my friend pointed out, and that's of course the nature of what the House of…
