Change of Tone from House GOP on Replacing ObamaCare
President Trump says he changed some minds on the House GOP bill to replace ObamaCare.
FOX’s Rachel Sutherland reports from Washington:
President Trump says “nays” became “yays” at his meeting of staunch conservatives, as he made a deal on block funding for states and work requirements for able-bodied Medicaid recipients.
(President Trump) ”Now every single one is a yes.”
Republican Study Committee Chair Mark Walker is pleased with the changes.
(Walker) “Returns power to the state to be able to make the best decision for the sick, the indigent.”
The full House could pass the repeal and replace plan as soon as Thursday and then it faces a fight in the Senate. Republican Senator Rand Paul has said the bill is too much like ObamaCare.
