On the recordSeptember 28, 2013
I appreciate the gentlewoman's arguments that she makes on the floor, but the facts of the case are the facts of the case. ObamaCare took $716 billion out of Medicare to fund ObamaCare. Secondly, since ObamaCare was passed, there have been seven part-time jobs added for every one new full-time job added. We cannot pay for this bill. It is nonsustaining, and it's harming America and its future. That's why Republicans are here, gathering in strength and in numbers with resolve again today. I reserve the balance of my time. Mr. McGOVERN. I yield myself such time as I may consume. Mr. Speaker, it's pretty clear what's going on here today. My Republican friends didn't get their way so now they're throwing a tantrum. I see many more Members on the floor today as these speeches have gone on. I'm just curious: Can anybody enlighten us on what in fact happened in your secret conference, what we're going to vote on? I think the American people would like to know. I yield to anybody if they can tell me one fact that has been decided. I guess nobody wants to tell us. Mr. Speaker, I yield 2 minutes to the gentleman from Minnesota (Mr. Ellison).
