Mr. Speaker, a grassroots group in Aiken, South Carolina, is holding meetings to educate the residents about the Constitution and the principles of our Founding Fathers. Coordinated by Debbie Nix, the group is called ``We the People, Aiken.'' I am pleased to have attended one of their weekly Constitution classes recently at the H. Odell Weeks Activity Center.
During my recent visit to the group meeting, I highlighted my concerns about the government health care takeover and discussed how simply repealing it is not sufficient. We believe we must swap it with a more affordable solution that is centered around the patient and not the government. That is why I introduced H.R. 4944, the Siding With America's Patients (SWAP) Act, to continue to cover preexisting conditions, but will repeal the tax hikes and the unaffordable mandates on individuals and small business owners.
I want to thank the members of ``We the People, Aiken'' for their warm welcome and for their efforts to promote America's founding principles.
In conclusion, God bless our troops and we will never forget September 11 in the Global War on Terrorism.
