Betty McCollum: “This legislation can only be described as a stalking horse for an excessively expensive mega-bridge.”

I rise in opposition to the slate of permitting bills that the Republican majority has brought to the House Floor this week.

I expressed my serious concerns with how this resolution was written then, but nothing has changed.

H.R. 881 is a solution in search of a problem.

This bill does nothing to address the health care affordability crisis and is full of tired, failed ideas from previous GOP efforts to repeal the Affordable Care Act (ACA).
