The Congressional Record is a unique source of public documentation. It started in 1873, documenting nearly all the major and minor policies being discussed and debated.
“SECRETARY SEBELIUS CONTINUES TO VIOLATE CONGRESS” mentioning the U.S. Dept of Labor was published in the House of Representatives section on pages H3262 on June 11, 2013.
The publication is reproduced in full below:
SECRETARY SEBELIUS CONTINUES TO VIOLATE CONGRESS
(Mr. BURGESS asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. BURGESS. Mr. Speaker, last month, it was learned that the Secretary of Health and Human Services, Kathleen Sebelius, has been calling executives from private groups asking them to fund the Affordable Care Act by donating money to a private organization called Enroll America. Her actions then were questionable and have left us to wonder what the Secretary is promising executives in exchange for their support.
Last Tuesday, Secretary Sebelius disclosed that she solicited three additional companies, all of which provide services regulated by her agency: a drug maker, Johnson & Johnson; a health care system, Ascension Health; and a health insurance provider, Kaiser Permanente.
And so it begs the question: How far will this administration go to promote their flawed takeover of the country's health care?
Agencies that have already been engrossed in scandal, like the IRS, will be directly administering major provisions of the Affordable Care Act. Along with them, the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Labor, and the Treasury, these agencies will be involved in sharing and tracking consumer information to implement the President's law.
Do you really want to entrust this administration with the responsibility of controlling your health care and controlling your health care information?
