"In March, Senator Coburn and I released our third health care law oversight report. We entitled the report “Warning: Side Effects, A Check-Up on the Federal Health Law.” One chapter in our report is dedicated to the health care law’s job-killing Medicare device tax. It is a tax the analyses predict will negatively impact job creation and also—incredibly important for people around this country—will stifle medical innovation."

"While the President is trying to manufacture arguments he can run on, House Republicans have spent the last year and a half voting on and passing energy and jobs bills. In fact, more than two dozen jobs proposals are currently collecting dust on the majority leader’s desk. One after another, the House has passed a budget, a small business tax bill, bills to expand domestic energy production, and bills to reduce burdensome, job-killing regulations. Despite some saying nothing can get done in an election year, they are not done yet over in the House. I commend my House colleagues for their leadership, energy, and good work."

"Day in and day in out in this Chamber we hear about job-killing regulations from the other side. And yes, we must make sure that our regulations are finally balanced, but it has become religious in this Chamber that all regulations, whether they are there to preserve the lives of construction workers or to keep children from dying of asthma, are “job-killing regulations.” If this stays this ideological and this religious, we will see more killing of the real kind."
