Mrs. LUMMIS. Mr. Speaker, let's review the top 10 reasons why ObamaCare is wrong for women:

Higher insurance costs--that's already happening; 20 new taxes--that's coming; the likely loss of your current insurance--we know that's coming; losing dependent coverage--that's already happening; employers losing rights of conscience over morally offensive procedures--already in litigation; the overwhelming of the Medicaid programs that are in States that participate in the extension; loss of control over family health care decisions; doctor shortages--a real concern in my State of Wyoming; employers cutting back work hours for their employees to 25 hours a week to avoid the costly mandate; loss of child-only health insurance policies; and, now, $210 billion added to the deficit over 10 years.

Mr. Speaker, Congress passed a bad law. The President signed a bad law. The Supreme Court upheld a bad law. Let's repeal it.
