These are the types of things I'd like to see the House move forward so we can demonstrate to the American public how the support for Obamacare is eroding here in Congress. Look at the letters that the unions wrote to Congress here. James Hoff of the Teamsters, the National Treasury Employees Union basically wrote a letter saying, you've got to fix this thing. It is going to be a disaster. It's destroying the 40 hour workweek. So the more we can do in terms of raising the profile of the damage that Obamacare is going to do to our economy to job creation.
