"Make Our Voices Heard"

Floor Speech

Ms. FOXX. Mr. Speaker, Rodney from Winston-Salem, North Carolina, pays $540 a month for a family health insurance plan that covers his wife, his 16-year-old son, and himself. This plan works well for them and fits within their family budget; but Rodney received the same unwelcomed news that has startled millions of other Americans: the health insurance he likes will be canceled because the ``suits'' in Washington think his preferred plan is lousy. The most similar government-sanctioned ObamaCare plan will cost Rodney's family $1,139 each month--more than their mortgage payment.

Understandably, Rodney is sickened by this news.

I have worked very hard my entire adult life to take care of my family and provide for all of their needs. How am I supposed to continue to support them ..... with the government forcing me into a situation I cannot afford?

Rodney closed his letter by asking me:

If you do nothing else, please do everything in your power to make our voices heard.

House Republicans are doing that every day for Rodney and for Americans like him.
