"President Obama wants everyone to now believe ObamaCare is a success. Well, ObamaCare is not a success to the millions who lost the health care plans they liked. ObamaCare is not a success for those families who want to see the doctor they want to see, not that Washington wants them to see. ObamaCare is not a success to the families who saw their costs skyrocket and quality of care diminish.


"ObamaCare is not a success to the hourly workers who are seeing their wages cut by as much as 26% because of the law's 30 hour work week rule. That's what this week is about. It's about trying to help those who have been specifically hurt by this 30 hour rule. It will hurt young workers trying to save for college or buy their first home. An overwhelming majority of those hurt by the 30 hour rule are women, many of them single moms trying to make ends meet. The workers most hurt by these wage cuts will be those who earn the least.

"There's a substitute teacher in my hometown of Richmond, her name is Amy, and she was quoted in our hometown paper as saying, "The people it is going to affect are the same people that need or want to work every single day."

"In fact, it seems that the President wants to hide these problems behind a minimum wage debate. The President's proposed rate increase barely covers these losses from the ObamaCare 30 hour rule. The answer to these lost wages isn't more lost jobs."

"The House is going to take action this week under Representative Young's bill to do something about this - to help those that want to see their paychecks increased; to help those that frankly want the freedom to go back to work."
