“That's a wonderful rendition, and I appreciate the gentleman from Louisiana. I now yield to Representative LaMalfa from California's First Congressional District. Mr. LaMALFA. I greatly appreciate the gentlelady from Minnesota for her efforts here and for the great lady she is. Mr. Speaker, again, here we are, discussing an issue where this has taken away choices from the American people. Now, as promised, we saw the President himself say, if you like your health care plan, you'll be able to keep your health care plan, period. No one will take it away. One of my colleagues on this floor yesterday, counter to that, said how he had had his plan canceled as of the end of this year. People all over this country are now starting to get cancellations on their health care insurance plan that they've chosen with their families, around their kitchen table, probably agonized over how they're deciding to afford it, what level of deductible, what kind of coverage they're going to have. And that's being swept away by what really feels, to a lot of people--a lot of my constituents are telling me it feels like a very oppressive plan that's being pushed upon them. It's really unbelievable in the United States of America that you can be forced into being a part of this system. It blows my mind that the Supreme Court would agree and rule that people should be forced into purchasing something of this personal choice.…”
