Mr. Speaker, earlier today, I received an email from a woman who runs a small business in my district. I will read it to you now: Morgan, As you know, I'm a small business with 36 employees, have been paying 75 percent of my employees' health care for over 20 years. Get a call from health care provider agent that although my renewal date is March 1, the companies are offering to renew on December 1 this year with a 9.8 percent increase. This is to beat what is anticipated as a 30 to 60 percent increase after all the effects of ObamaCare. Needless to say, this has reignited my frustration with the so-called Affordable Health Care Act. Please stick to your principles, continue the fight. Let me know what, if anything, I can do. Yes, ma'am, I will. ____________________
