Published on Jul 10, 2012

Congressional Progressive Caucus (CPC) Co-Chair Rep. Keith Ellison (D-MN) introduced a motion to adjourn the House of Representatives today after fellow Co-Chair Rep. Raúl M. Grijalva (D-AZ) and other CPC members spoke against a House Republican bill to repeal the Affordable Care Act. The Co-Chairs called on Republicans to focus on creating jobs for the American people instead of wasting time on this 31st vote to repeal health care for Americans.

Republicans have spent more than 80 hours trying to repeal health care since they took control in 2011. The repeal vote this week will not pass the Senate or be signed into law by President Obama. Against Democrats' objections, the House already passed a bill repealing the Affordable Care Act in January of 2011, making today's vote especially pointless. The Affordable Care Act became law in 2010.

    When Congressional Republicans sought to repeal the law, CBO found that eliminating the law would increase the deficit. CBO wrote:

    “[T]he effect of H.R. 2 on federal deficits as a result of changes in direct spending and revenues is likely to be an increase in the vicinity of $230 billion, plus or minus the effects of technical and economic changes to CBO’s and JCT’s projections for that period.”

    That microphone should have been detached so that he could drop it at the end.

    it's so convenient when you call those you disagree with "racist", "xenophobes", etc. why don't you make a law saying all Muslim, Blacks, fill in the blank______ whoever is the popular "minority" at the time, is always RIGHT and cannot be disagreed with or the speech police will come & throw you in jail!!

    Here's another reason to hate Keith Ellison: He's a Muslim. Go to work haters!

    Keith Ellison wants your ailing grandmothers to be thrown into a pit by Obama's communist stormtroopers. You practically heard him say it. What good are these "jobs" if your grandmother's being thrown into a pit?

    Like I said, you're just spouting off talking points without having any facts. You and others like you are a blight on our democracy.
