Senate D’s Block Obamacare Repeal

Item: Repeal of health care reform law fails on party line vote in U.S. Senate/Politico

Sen. Jim Risch: “Washington, D.C., has once again failed the American people by upholding a health care law that requires 10 years worth of new taxes to pay for six years of benefits, takes billions of dollars from Medicare and drives up the cost of premiums. This law is bad public policy and the American people know it. We must end this nonsense of business as usual by repealing this law and replacing it with real reforms that remove the government from the doctor-patient relationship.”

 

Question: What now?
