I suggest it starts with shutting this down and starting over. We need to create more options, more choices, and more competition in the health care economy so people can get away from the sticker shock we have seen with ObamaCare and get costs down. We need to get away from these cancellation notices that are going out and allow people to keep the care and doctor they have and like. Because of the broken promises under ObamaCare, that is not happening. Until we decide this was the wrong direction and pivot and go in a different direction, we are going to continue to see the results we have today--higher costs, more cancellations, people not being able to keep the care they like or the doctor they like. We can do better and should do better. I yield the floor. The PRESIDING OFFICER (Ms. Baldwin). The Senator from Minnesota.
