The "Train Wreck" Must Be Stopped

Floor Speech

Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Mr. Speaker, yesterday, the House passed the 37th piece of legislation that replaces, repeals, or defunds the government health care takeover bill.

House Republicans warned the American people that the legislation's effect would be devastating to patients, to health care providers, and to small businesses--destroying jobs.

In recent weeks, there has been bipartisan recognition of the failure of the government's health care takeover. Senator Max Baucus has warned that ObamaCare's implementation will be a train wreck. Sadly, thousands of new IRS agents who deny free speech will now control health care.

The good news is that there is still time for repeal. The House has acted in the best interests of American families. It is my hope that the Senate will consider our efforts and pass legislation before it's too late.

In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism.

Congratulations, Candice Glover of St. Helena Island, South Carolina, for being the newest queen of ``American Idol.''
