House to vote on condemning Trump's renewed effort to repeal 'Obamacare'
In an effort by Democrats to keep health care in the headlines, a non-binding resolution condemning the Trump administration's support of a federal lawsuit that could overturn the Affordable Care Act will go to a vote in the House of Representatives on Wednesday.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said the Trump administration’s efforts to overturn the Affordable Care Act through the courts “reeks of desperation,” charging the GOP doesn’t have a backup plan to replace the healthcare law. Schumer teased Trump for the sudden about-face, doubting the president has “a magic plan” if he’s reelected.
"It's going to need bipartisan support because Nancy Pelosi is the Speaker of the House," Barrasso, R-Wyo., said on NBC's"Meet The Press" on Sunday."We are absolutely continuing to work on this, realizing that it has to be bipartisan." "My concern is that the biggest threat that I see to the freedom and the economy of this country is this complete government takeover of health care, which is where the Democrats are going, this Medicare for all," Barrasso told NBC.
