Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Madam Speaker, yesterday the House passed a bill that repealed the liberal unconstitutional health care takeover. I would like to congratulate my colleagues who voted in favor of the repeal of the job-killing health law act. The winning margin was new conservative Members elected in November to truly promote limited government and expanded freedom.
Our work is not yet complete. Today, the House will be voting on true, real health care reform authored by Chairman David Dreier--reform that can make health care accessible, reform that will make health care affordable, reform that will not eliminate small businesses.
I hope all Members will work together for this kind of health care reform. The measure we are voting on today will not deprive seniors of care. It will not create long waiting lines for the sick. It will not burden future generations of Americans with massive debt.
Madam Speaker, this is the kind of health care reform Americans want to see. It's a solution for our families who need to preserve the doctor-patient relationship.
In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism.
END
