I rise today to call up a bipartisan motion to discharge legislation to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits to make sure that tens of millions of everyday Americans do not experience dramatically increased premiums, copays, and deductibles that will prevent them from being able to go see a doctor when they need one. I strongly urge a ``yes'' vote on this bipartisan motion so that we can take a meaningful step forward in this Congress to address the healthcare crisis in the United States of America.
