Political Quotes

On the recordNovember 19, 2013
I thank the gentleman. I thank, more importantly, his heart on representing the people of the great State of Indiana and on the fact that he is concerned on a daily basis. We have had conversations a number of times on not only how this health care law is affecting families but, truly, on how we must find a way to work together in a bipartisan way to stop the harmful effects on those men and women whom we call neighbors, friends, and constituents. So I thank the gentleman for yielding. Americans across the country are already feeling the impacts of ObamaCare, and many of them are fearful of what lies ahead. I know, in my State alone, we have had over 473,000 people who have lost their health care coverage due to cancelations because of ObamaCare. They keep asking, What is coming next? What is the next thing? Whether it is a Web site that doesn't work, whether it is the cancelation of policies, whether it is security concerns over the Web site that are existing, they are all concerned. I held a town hall meeting last night, and 85 percent of the callers' questions were related to ObamaCare. I don't think we have ever seen it so overwhelmingly lopsided in terms of one issue. Yet it was all about families, and for me, it was the families of western North Carolina. I had veterans asking me, Does this mean that I am going to lose my health care coverage? Is TRICARE going to be sucked into ObamaCare?…
