This bill is about choice, freedom, and good healthcare coverage, and we should approve the bill without this amendment. Madam Chair, I ask my colleagues to vote ``no'' on the amendment, and I yield back the balance of my time. The Acting CHAIR. The question is on the amendment offered by the gentlewoman from Connecticut (Mrs. Hayes). The question was taken; and the Acting Chair announced that the noes appeared to have it.
