Obamacare's co-ops have been a disaster, and after using American taxpayers' piggybank, more than half have failed.

I am confident we can resolve these issues, Mr. Speaker. This has been a long overdue bill that provides much modernization to our Customs process to make it easier for our manufacturers and our businesses and, ultimately, our workers, to…

History confirms that it is up to public policymakers to enact laws that allow the private sector to thrive.

It is the role of Congress and the President, not the Federal Reserve, to set the stage for greater economic growth.

And rather than trying to come up with these BEPS rules and anti-inversion rules, I just don't understand and don't see the leadership from the White House.

Boy, oh boy. I remember watching the Democratic Convention and Joe Biden making fun of the exemption system, saying that would ship jobs overseas.

I think most of us agree that a user-pay system is the way to go for funding our highways and our infrastructure.

Speaker Boehner has made this clear, a gas tax is not going to happen.

Thank you for holding this hearing as we try to come up with a long-term solution to fund our country's roads and infrastructure.

Before I yield to the gentleman from Kentucky, I just want to point out the record here. No public service worker has ever been certified for TAA under the 2009 stimulus TAA that was passed. I will also reiterate a statement from the White…

I now have the privilege to yield 1\1/2\ minutes to the gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Roskam), a member of the Ways and Means Committee and an important voice on trade.

I would like to remind my friend that globalization occurred long before any trade agreement. My dad lost his job, his steelworker job, years before NAFTA. In fact, we have a trade surplus, Mr. Speaker. We have a trade surplus with the 20…

It is now my honor to yield 1 minute to the gentleman from Indiana (Mr. Young), a member of the Ways and Means Committee and a great partner in trying to open up and break down barriers around the world.

I was unable to attend this evening's rollcall votes. Had I been present, I would have voted as follows: rollcall No. 174: H.R. 373--``yea,'' rollcall No. 175: H.R. 1324-- ``yea.'' ____________________

In my State of Ohio, trade becomes a pretty emotional issue, particularly during campaign time.

I appreciate the fact that we are trying to figure out the family farm. But with all due respect to the two of you, it is more than the family farm. It is that third-generation business.

What is so great about America is that my mom and dad taught me that with hard work and a little luck and a little bit of elbow grease, you can actually accomplish something in America.

You get taxed when you earn it, you get taxed when you save it, which is crazy.

This is hard. And this place--it is hard to get things done. But you represent why I believe Mr. Brady's legislation is the right thing to do.

The Tax Code often times makes really weird--or makes people make weird choices, and it does create winners and losers.

We can, in this place, not pay for a trillion-dollar spending bill, but then we have to pay for tax cuts.

I would ask if the other side is ready for closing. We have no more speakers at this time, and I reserve the balance of my time to close.

I know what it means personally for a family to lose the pension they were relying on.

The cost of doing nothing is too high a price to pay.

Increasing pension costs have hampered both the job growth and capital investment needed to grow the economy and have threatened retirement security for American workers.
