On the recordApril 19, 1994
yesterday in a speech in Milwaukee the President said that his health care plan will ``cause a shift of jobs.'' Just exactly what does a shift of jobs mean? It means if a person is a small business owner, their job will be shifted right out of existence. It means if they work for a firm that cannot afford to provide health insurance yet, that job will be shifted to oblivion. It means if a person is currently unemployed and wants to find a job, their chances of finding one will be shifted to slim. Mr. Speaker, the Democratic majority has acknowledged that the Clinton health care plan will further hurt small businesses and retard economic growth. I encourage them to join with Republicans to find ways to enact responsible health care reform without giving American people the shift.
