repeal is a boone for the insurance companies but an enormous setback for american families. if we pass this bill the insurance companies can raise their rates, discriminate against millions of americans with pre-existing conditions and cut off coverage when someone becomes sick. there are many reasons to oppose repeal. the health care bill is creating thousands of new jobs, it will cut the deficit by curbing the growth of health care costs, saving taxpayers over $1 trillion. this is why i urge members to vote no on this legislation. if there's a change the republicans want to make, let them propose it. but don't throw it all out the window and say they're going to do all these things we've already done. i urge members to oppose this legislation and reserve the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman reserves the balance of his time. the gentleman from michigan. mr. upton: mr. speaker, i would yield two minutes to the chairman emeritus of the energy and commerce committee, joe barton, whose state could lose perhaps 64 hospitals that would close with then co

parents' coverage, which has now been extended as you know to the age of 26, which has been a huge boonto a lot of families. a number of children are also eligible for chip coverage and the new high risk plan, so there are a variety of strategies in place to make sure that children have coverage. we are continuing to work closely with insurance companies to help rethink the strategies between now and 2014. 2014 there won't any longer be any ma barriers for anyone with preexisting condition to have coverage. the child only provisions kicked in initially this year. >> you're saying there is no need for changes? >> well, senator, we will continue to look at the situation, particularly in states like wyoming, if all the companies have moved out. i think it's untenable for parents not to have coverage, but i would suggest, i would hope that we could call on the companies who have made ample profit selling child only policy s to children who were not ill or had any preexisting condition to reconsider their efforts to leave the market and a whole series of companies have indeed done that. >> i

[laughter] they then submitted her to the most extraordinary intrusive personal pat-down and everything else performed by a person who she describes as a female on her identity papers only. that is how she described the person within the pat-down. she then comes back to washington and as an experienced diplomat tried to contact the tsa and informed them of what happened. the tsa's the answer is that security comes first and that isn't -- that is the ambassador to india who in the presence of the staff accompanying was submitted to extraordinary procedures. by the we all heard things were opened up in public and everything to get out and putting her diplomatic dispatches which were not suspected. so if you ha
