On the recordMarch 21, 2010
This bill will not last. It is based on a fatal assumption that one party acting unilaterally can dictate the entire will of the American people on one-sixth of the economy. That will not happen. It reignites the abortion debate. It is fatally flawed in its assumptions in terms of balancing the budget and deficit reduction, and it will take away coverage from millions of people if it gets as far as 2014 and you kick in the option that puts all these mandates on employers. Please vote ``no.'' Let's go back, start over. Let's start from scratch and do a bill that everybody can support. Vote ``no'' on this bill.
