Who’s gonna pick up the pieces after Trumpcare failed? While many Conservative talkies and GOP’ers are stating the best thing for the GOP now is for failure of Obamacare what does that say for those using it. “Hey look you’re using Obamacare and that’s good for you to be able to have insurance of any sort, but we really hope it explodes so then you’re screwed and have to come back to us”
At least there are some GOP’ers who were against the replacement plan and working on alternatives that are hopefully much much better then it’s predecessor – PB/TK
GOP senators pitch alternatives after House pulls ObamaCare repeal bill – by Jordain Carney – 03/24/17
Republican senators are pitching their own plans for repealing and replacing ObamaCare after their House counterparts pulled their bill on Friday afternoon.
But the initial responses from GOP senators appeared to underscore the differences that could divide the caucus moving forward.
GOP Sens.
Rand Paul (KY) and Mike Lee (Utah) quickly advocated for a bill that could pass along party lines with only GOP support.
“We will begin working collaboratively here in the Senate and with our friends in the House to produce a bill that will get 51 votes in the Senate and 216 in the House,” Lee said in a statement.
Paul separately predicted that they would soon take up “full repeal,” praising House conservatives for rejecting “ObamaCare Lite.”
Paul and the House Freedom Caucus have introduced legislation that would mirror a 2015 bill that cleared Congress but was vetoed by President Obama.
That bill would effectively separate repealing ObamaCare from replacing it and would likely draw pushback from some moderate lawmakers
