We believe patients--not Washington bureaucrats--should be in charge of their health care decisions.

A failed law that has resulted in nearly 5 million Americans losing the health care they liked.

It's in a death spiral.

In a time when so many Americans are looking for ideas and policies we can unite around, one point of agreement stands out. There is strong consensus among Americans that they do not want their taxpayer dollars being used to fund…

Well, bless you for exercising your civic responsibility in doing what you have done.

I can tell you that small businesses in my district are breathing a sigh of relief that this fundamentally flawed rule was blocked by a federal judge.

It is clear our nation's wage and hour rules were designed for another era and no longer reflect the realities of the 21st century workforce.

As Chairwoman Foxx has made clear, a commitment to holding the administration accountable for how it enforces the law.

Every campaign season, like clockwork, families are bombarded by an endless stream of political robocalls. There is little voters can do to stop the annoyance, which all too often comes right in the middle of family dinners and bedtimes…

I do think that the hearing today has been helpful and I think has brought out a lot of good information about the negative impact of the ACA.

I think we have to constantly do fact-checking around here to give the real facts about what's happening.

Forty-eight million Americans did not have health care before the Affordable Care Act.

This has never been about politics. The fight to repeal and replace Obamacare has always been about people.

There is an urgent need to address the challenges facing working families and small businesses under Obamacare.

I thank my colleague from New Jersey for his unflagging leadership on the issue of pro-life as well as on other issues related to human rights. Mr. Speaker, since 1973, as my colleague before me said, at least 58 million children's lives…

Our colleague on the other side of the aisle asked: Who the hell are we to be here speaking on this legislation and passing this legislation? Well, Madam Speaker, we are the Representatives of the people of this country. Madam Speaker, the…
