Joe Pitts: “I am pleased to yield 1 minute to the gentlewoman from Kansas (Ms. Jenkins).”

I for one in a portion of my life when I was a boy lived in a household where we didn't have access to health care.

Because of the Affordable Care Act, now over 20 million people in this country who were in that situation literally overnight are no longer in that situation.

It is embarrassing that in the most capable country in the world, in the most powerful elected bodies in the world that we effectively have done almost nothing to improve the health care of Americans since this law has been passed.

It is unfortunate that we have a Congress of the United States, the majority parties that want to just tear down this law.
