ms. kennedy, would you accept that? >> in the effort to move along, i would. >> so on the amendment, an amendment to the amendment as presented by the woman, which would be striking the word "it all." all in favor of this amendment to strike the word "all," say aye. opposed? the word will be struck. sir, you are recognized. a question has been called on ms. kennedy' as amended amendment. all in favor of calling the question -- all opposed? the question has been called. we are now on health and then the no. 9, ms. kennedy of nevada, page 3, 8. all in favor, say aye. all opposed? the amendment has been adopted. we now move to 18. mr. henderson of north dakota, you are recognized for 60 seconds on your amendment. >> ok, thank you, madam chair. i agree we can get rid of obamacare. on page three, line 18, after we read, "american people," i would like to strike "their representatives" and add the phrase "through the free market ," and i want to do that because people in my district, they want to let the free market works, an

ms. kennedy's language. >> aye. >> is there further comment on the amended amendment?am not troubled by the idea of the concept of the amendment. is it accurate to say it requires all citizens to purchase health insurance to? if somebody could clarify for me. but it does not require all citizens. it requires the vast majority of citizens. there is a set of them that are explicitly excluded where the government gives them entitlement, so i did not word my first comment well, but it is there. >> i really want to encourage people to please the accept the wording, the amendment to the amendments. i understand this is a grassroots document. i appreciate, but sometimes we have to stand by what the american people are telling us. eventually, it will force everyone to please stand with us. we could take it to death. -- pick it to death. >> you are recognized. >> i understand all people will not be required to purchase health insurance, but people's economic change through their life, and if that is the case, most people who are u.s. citizens will be required to purchase health

ms. kennedy do you consider? inaudible] >> okay. >> understand when you pull the microphone, the wires grab the base, please. >> so the suggested language which is which mrs. kennedy accepts is a friendly amendment. would be "and resulted from a further erosion of our constitution by requiring that all u.s. citizens purchase health insurance." >> yes, that is correct. >> okay. >> okay. so technical point? we won that issue. and the supreme court on the commerce clause and i wonder if it ought to say a threat to our constitution rather than a further erosion because the attorneys general actually won on that point and the commerce clause can't be used for that issue and as people look at it further erosion, gives the impression we lost on it. and we won on it. on that issue. so it's technical. [inaudible] he is of course, correct that one of the alternate grounds on striking the mandate we won on but we lost on the other. so the effect of the decision is that u.s. citizens are required to purchase health insurance.

ms. kennedy. >> cynthia kennedy from nevada.dment is more of a punctuation to what you were trying to say in the first sentence. i don't think it was misleading to have people think that all transactions are done in catch. a dollar on a credit card is the same as a dollar on a federal reserve note. what the individual was trying to do here, mr. walls, was also punctuate the idea that the republican party is aware of the federal reserve's role in the value of our money. so many people think the federal reserve is a part of our government and don't realize it's a private corporation and the influence that they do have on the value of our money and how that has reached a state of crises actually. how many people are putting money in the bank anymore. when i was a little girl, my father took me down to the bank and i opened up a bank account and i put my $5 birthday presents and christmas money and i watched it grow through the years until i went to college. nowadays people cannot do that. you don't get any interest putting money in
