“It is a fiction--it is a distortion--and here we are at it again. Now, in the first 2 weeks of their majority, the majority came here and made a promise to the American people. They said: Yes, we're going to try to repeal the Affordable Care Act, but then we're going to replace the Affordable Care Act. It was repeal and replace. We've had the repeal as a recurring scenario on the floor. This is just another chapter in it. Where's the replace? For the provision that says that people 26 and under can stay on their parents' plans, if you repeal the Affordable Care Act, where is your bill to replace it? For the provision that says that no person can be denied health insurance or charged more for it if they're diabetic or if they have breast cancer or asthma, where is their replacement? For the provision that says that seniors who fall into the doughnut hole get significantly greater help in paying for their prescription drugs, where is their replacement? For the provision that says that small business people who voluntarily provide health insurance to their employees get a significant tax cut, where is their replacement? There's a saying that our friend from Texas says about being all hat and no horse. The majority is all repeal and no replace. So this is yet another example of a debate that's tired, worn out, and seen its day. The Affordable Care Act is helping improve the lives of Americans.…”
