Kucinich, Dennis - U.S. Representative, [D] Ohio
CARE DEBATE, THE FLAWED PREMISE OF WHICH HEALTH CARE REFORM CANNOT HAPPEN WITHOUT THE COOPERATION OF THE INSURANCE COMPANIES WHICH MAKE MONEY PROVIDING...
|
| 00:06:56 |
THE SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE, -
WHETHER THEY CAN AFFORD IT OR NOT. THIS IS A TOTALITARIAN CONCEPT. THE CONSTITUTION DOES NOT GIVE THIS OPPRESSIVE POWER TO THE FEDERAL

IN THE GOVERNMENT-RUN OPTION. IN THE EDUCATION AND LABOR COMMITTEE, I WAS ABLE TO PASS THE AMENDMENT REQUIRING CONGRESS TO TAKE

MR. WILSON, -

WHICH WOULD MAKE CONGRESS TO TAKE THE GOVERNMENT-RUN OPTION
|
| 00:09:57 |
Wilson, Addison "Joe" Graves - U.S. Representative, [R] South Carolina
BEING PUSHED ON THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. THAT ONE SMALL MAY REVERSES THE MEANING OF THE BILL. IF SPEAKER PELOSI INSISTS ON SHOVING THIS BILL THROUGH,...

THE SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE, -

MR. YARMUTH, -
APPEARED 3,400 TIMES IN THE BILL. WELL, THAT'S

AN INTERESTING POINT BUT IT ALSO REVEALED THE SAME AMOUNT OF AMNESIA ABOUT

Yarmuth, John - U.S. Representative, [D] Kentucky
LAW WRITING AND CIVILIZATION. ONE OF OUR MOST IMPORTANT AND FORMATIVE LAW HAD THE WORD SHALL IN EVERY SENTENCE. YOU SHALL HONOR YOUR MOTHER AND FATHER....

McCaul, Michael - U.S. Representative, [R] Texas

Kingston, Jack - U.S. Representative, [R] Georgia

THE SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE, -
PLAN INCLUDES MORE THAN $1 TRILLION IN NEW FEDERAL SPENDING ON HEALTH CARE
|
| 00:22:14 |
MS. FOXX, -
OVER THE NEXT 10

THE SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE, -
YEARS. AND WHEN ONE LOOKS PAST THE

| 00:22:18 |
Foxx, Virginia - U.S. Representative, [R] North Carolina
BUDGET GIMMICKS, THE REALITY IS THE PELOSI HEALTH CARE PLAN WILL COST TAXPAYERS ROUGHLY $1.3 TRILLION AND CREATE 111 NEW BUREAUCRACY. THIS IS NOT THE...

EXPEDITED CARD REFORM FOR CONSUMERS ACT OF

THE SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE, -
UNCERTAINTY. HERE WE ARE ON THE FOURTH OF
|
| 00:30:44 |
Foxx, Virginia - U.S. Representative, [R] North Carolina
NOVEMBER AND THE MAJORITY THINKS THAT THIS BILL IS GOING TO BE PASSED IN TIME TO MOVE THIS DATE UP TO DECEMBER 1. IT'S TOTALLY UNREALISTIC IN ADDITION...
|
| 00:32:48 |
THE SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE, -
MIDDLE EAST, COULD BE ENERGY, HEALTH CARE, IMMIGRATION, BUT ALWAYS AMONG THE TOP FIVE ARE CREDIT CARDS
|
| 00:32:54 |
Perlmutter, Edwin "Ed" G. - U.S. Representative, [D] Colorado
AND OVERDRAFT FEES. BECAUSE SO MANY PEOPLE ARE AFFECTED BY WHAT TURN OUT TO BE SOME SHARP PRACTICES BY SOME ISSUERS. THE PURPOSE OF THE CARD ACT IS TO...
|
| 00:34:08 |
THE SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE, -
OPPOSITION TO THE RULE. IN A NUTSHELL I THINK WE WOULD BE MUCH BETTER SERVED WITH AN OPEN RULE. I HAVE AN AMENDMENT
|
| 00:34:15 |
MS. FOXX, -
THAT UNDER AN OPEN RULE I WOULD HAVE PROPOSED AND IT SIMPLY SAYS THIS -- THAT WHILE ALL THIS IS VERY INTERESTING TALKING ABOUT CREDIT CARD DEBT AND THOSE
|
| 00:34:22 |
THE SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE, -
PROTECTIONS, AND YOU CAN HAVE A CONVERSATION ABOUT THAT, THE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM IS THIS
|
| 00:34:26 |
Roskam, Peter - U.S. Representative, [R] Illinois
IDEA OF NATIONAL DEBT. AND MY BILL -- MY AMENDMENT WOULD HAVE SIMPLY SAID THAT INCOME TAX RETURN FORMS WOULD HAVE BEEN AMENDED TO HAVE FOUR LINES ON...
|
| 00:36:36 |
THE SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE, -
THE HOUSE TODAY. COMPLETELY OUTSIDE OF THE TOPIC, AND I WOULD JUST SAY TO MY FRIEND FROM ILLINOIS THAT
|
| 00:36:41 |
MR. PERLMUTTER, -
THIS COUNTRY BY TAKING ATTACK UNDER PRESIDENT BUSH AND THE
|
| 00:36:44 |
THE SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE, -
REPUBLICAN CONGRESS TO CUT TAXES AND PROSECUTE TWO WARS
|
| 00:36:47 |
Perlmutter, Edwin "Ed" G. - U.S. Representative, [D] Colorado
AND DRIVE THIS COUNTRY INTO THE ECONOMIC DIFFICULT IS WHAT WE THE DEMOCRATS ARE TRYING TO BUILD OURSELVES OUT OF. AND IT WILL TAKE TIME AND IT WILL TAKE...
|
| 00:38:28 |
THE SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE, -
DON'T TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. BLAME GEORGE BUSH. I THINK THAT'S GETTING A LITTLE OLD WITH THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. EXCUSES.
|
| 00:38:35 |
MS. FOXX, -
YOU KNOW, THIS COUNTRY WAS FOUNDED ON THE CONCEPT OF INDIVIDUAL FREEDOM. THAT'S WHAT WE WERE FOUNDED ON. AND
|
| 00:38:40 |
THE SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE, -
TAKING RESPONSIBILITY. WE ARE NOT IN THE BUSINESS OF BLAMING
|
| 00:38:43 |
Foxx, Virginia - U.S. Representative, [R] North Carolina
OTHERS OR WE SHOULD NOT BE. OUR ECONOMY WAS DOING REALLY GREAT UNTIL THE DEMOCRATS TOOK CONTROL OF THIS HOUSE IN 2007. YOU CAN LOOK AT -- WE GOT CHARTS....
|
| 00:44:55 |
THE SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE, -
AGO DURING ONE
|
| 00:44:56 |
MR. PERLMUTTER, -
MINUTES ONE OF OUR DEMOCRATIC COLLEAGUES CAME IN AND
|
| 00:45:00 |
Foxx, Virginia - U.S. Representative, [R] North Carolina
TALKED ABOUT THE NUMBER OF SHALLS IN THE
|
| 00:45:05 |
MR. PERLMUTTER, -
PROPOSED HEALTH CARE BILL BY
|
| 00:45:08 |
THE SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE, -
THE DEMOCRATS. AND THEN SPOKE ABOUT THE 10
|
| 00:45:12 |
Foxx, Virginia - U.S. Representative, [R] North Carolina
COMMANDMENTS AND POINTED OUT THAT THE 10 COMMANDMENTS LIBERALLY USES THE WORD SHALL. I THINK THAT IT IS THE HEIGHT OF ARROGANCE TO COMPARE THE OUTRAGEOUS...
|
| 00:52:17 |
THE SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE, -
PERLMUTTER: I JUST WAS LISTENING TO MY FRIEND FROM NORTH CAROLINA AND SHE REALLY
|
| 00:52:22 |
MR. PERLMUTTER, -
DIDN'T TALK ABOUT THE BILL. SHE TALKED ABOUT HEALTH CARE. WHICH IS A PROBLEM THAT'S BEEN LINGERING FOR A LONG TIME AND REPUBLICANS FOR 12 YEARS IN...
|
| 00:52:31 |
THE SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE, -
WELL AS EIGHT YEARS UNDER PRESIDENT BUSH, SAILED FAILED TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT DISCRIMINATING AGAINST PEOPLE
|
| 00:52:38 |
Perlmutter, Edwin "Ed" G. - U.S. Representative, [D] Colorado
WITH PRIOR ILLNESSES. THE HEALTH CARE BILL TAKES CARE OF THAT. FAILED TO DEAL WITH ANYTHING RELATED TO THE INCREASE IN PREMIUMS THAT INDIVIDUALS AND...
|
| 00:54:19 |
THE SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE, -
A TIME CONSUMER BECAUSE THE DEMOCRATS HAVE NO
|
| 00:54:23 |
Foxx, Virginia - U.S. Representative, [R] North Carolina
REAL LEGISLATION TO OFFER. THEY KNOW THIS BILL CAN'T GO INTO EFFECT BY DECEMBER 1. BUT THEY NEED SOMETHING TO KEEP US HERE THIS WEEK BECAUSE THEY...
|
| 00:57:34 |
THE SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE, -
MATTER WAS NEVER ADDRESSED BY A REPUBLICAN CONGRESS. REALLY NOT ADDRESSED
|
| 00:57:38 |
MR. PERLMUTTER, -
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES EXCEPT TO CREATE
|
| 00:57:41 |
THE SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE, -
THE DOUGHNUT HOLE FOR SENIORS. THAT'S ABOUT THE SUM AND
|
| 00:57:44 |
Perlmutter, Edwin "Ed" G. - U.S. Representative, [D] Colorado
SUBSTANCE OF 12 YEARS OF REPUBLICANS IN CONGRESS AND EIGHT YEARS OF PRESIDENT BUSH IN THE WHITE HOUSE. NOW, COMMITTEES DEBATE THIS HEALTH CARE BILL...

|
| 01:05:33 |
Perlmutter, Edwin "Ed" G. - U.S. Representative, [D] Colorado
COMMITTEE. WE'D HAVE A LONG TIME TO DO IT, BUT THE RULES COMMITTEE IS THE ONLY COMMITTEE IN CONGRESS THAT MEETS BEHIND CLOSED DOORS, THAT
|
| 01:05:40 |
THE SPEAKER PRO TEMPORE, -
DOES NOT HAVE C-SPAN IN
|
| 01:05:43 |
Foxx, Virginia - U.S. Representative, [R] North Carolina
THERE. AND NANCY PELOSI PROMISED THE MOST OPEN CONGRESS IN HISTORY, BUT THIS IS LIKE THE BOOK "1984" BY GEORGE ORWELL. IT'S DOUBLE SPEAK. MR. SPEAKER,...

THE CHAIR, -
FIVE MINUTES. THE CHAIR RECOGNIZES THE GENTLEMAN FROM NEW YORK. MR. MAFFEI: WHY SHOULD WE
|
| 03:15:09 |
THE CLERK, -
CARE ABOUT ENACTING A BILL A MATTER OF A COUPLE WEEKS EARLIER? WE WORKED HARD TO PASS THE

CREDIT CARDHOLDERS BILL OF RIGHTS. IT WAS A NECESSARY PIECE OF LEGISLATION TO PROTECT CONSUMERS FROM THE ABUSE OF PRACTICES THAT MADE MANY BANKS STANDARD...

Maffei, Daniel "Dan" - U.S. Representative, [D] New York

AMENDMENT. THE THANKS AND CREDIT CARD COMPANIES HAVE EARNED
|
| 03:19:44 |
Maffei, Daniel "Dan" - U.S. Representative, [D] New York
THIS REGULATION AND EARNED THIS AMENDMENT BECAUSE THEY DID NOT USE THE TIME ALLOCATED TO THEM TO UPGRADE THEIR

SYSTEM. THEY USED THE TIME TO RAISE
|
| 03:19:54 |
Maloney, Carolyn - U.S. Representative, [D] New York

HOW WILL ALL OF OUR CONSTITUENTS BE ABLE AGAIN TO PAY FOR THIS MONSTROSITY OF A GOVERNMENT TAKEOVER OF OUR

THE CHAIR, -
IS INDEFENSIBLE.
|
| 03:23:27 |
MR. MAFFEI, -
HE TRIED VERY HARD TO CHANGE THE SUBJECT. THIS BILL WILL MAKE PEOPLE WHO HAVE
|

THE CHAIR, -
CREDIT A LOT EASIER. THEY WOULD UNDERSTAND EXACTLY
|
| 03:23:35 |
Maffei, Daniel "Dan" - U.S. Representative, [D] New York
WHAT THEY'RE GETTING AND EXACTLY WHAT THEY'RE PAYING FOR. NOW, IN TERMS OF THE EFFECTIVE DATE, THIS AMENDMENT, SOME SAY WOULD BE UNREASONABLE TO IMPOSE...

UNFAIR AND DECEPTIVE PRACTICES THAT CREDIT CARD COMPANIES
|
| 03:25:27 |
Sutton, Betty - U.S. Representative, [D] Ohio

THE CHAIR, -
I'M CURIOUS WHETHER A NEW FEE, DOES THAT INCLUDE INCREASING
|
| 03:28:12 |
Hensarling, Jeb - U.S. Representative, [R] Texas
THE AMOUNT OF A FEE THAT IS ALREADY IN EXISTENCE? AND I'D YIELD TO THE GENTLELADY FOR CLARIFICATION. MS. SUTTON: I APPRECIATE THE INQUIRY AND I BELIEVE...
|

Hensarling, Jeb - U.S. Representative, [R] Texas
EXISTING FEE WOULD COME WITHIN YOUR DEFINITION OF NEW FEE. CORRECT? I YIELD TO THE GENTLELADY. MS. SUTTON: I THANK THE GENTLEMAN FOR YIELDING, AND YES,...

|
| 03:33:19 |
THE CHAIR, -
AND FRIENDS IS IF THEY WANT TO CANCEL A CARD BECAUSE OF UNFAIR
|
| 03:33:23 |
Maloney, Carolyn - U.S. Representative, [D] New York
