Michele Bachmann said "As a Representative of the great State of Minnesota, I stand here in support of my colleague Representative Erik Paulsen's bill to eliminate and repeal the medical device tax on the new ObamaCare legislation. Our State of Minnesota is home to over 400 medical device manufacturers. We have over 35,000 people that are employed in this important industry that benefits all of the United States, 35,000 people. That about fills the Twins' Target Field. That's a lot of people who potentially could lose jobs in our home State. I refuse to see a single job lost in Minnesota or in any of our States in our great country due to the legislation known as ObamaCare. Without repealing the medical device tax, jobs will be lost and also the costs of health care will go up. I urge my colleagues to get behind Erik Paulsen's important piece of legislation. I know I will. ___________________
