there has been some confusion about the President's health care law recently, so I come to the floor to try to clear up one point. Just before the Fourth of July holiday, the Obama administration admitted to the world that its health care law is not working out according to plan. It did it in an unusual way--in a blog post--right before the Fourth of July holiday, but yet it is known to the world. By choosing to delay the law's employer mandate, the President conceded it would place a tremendous burden on America's job creators. Then, just this past Sunday, the Senate majority leader went on ``Meet the Press,'' on television, and said: ``ObamaCare has been wonderful for America.'' Wonderful for America? Senator Reid's comments demonstrate once again that Democrats in Washington--the people who voted for this law--are not listening to the American people. I hear it when I return home to Wyoming every weekend. I did this past weekend. I hear it as Members of the Senate do when they talk to friends from home. I heard it today from people from Gillette and Evanston and Cody that this health care law is unraveling. So I just want to make a couple of things clear to everyone. After 3\1/2\ years, we know the Obama health care law is not working. It is a train wreck. If the law was wonderful, it wouldn't increase premiums. It wouldn't shrink paychecks. It wouldn't discourage job creation.…
