Senate Refuses to Repeal Obamacare
Share:
A plan to repeal large portions of Obamacare failed to pass the U.S. Senate on Wednesday, as several Republicans joined Democrats in refusing to vote for repealing the law without a replacement ready.
The vote was 45-55, with seven Republicans voting no. The rejected proposal was essentially the same bill Congress passed two years ago but was vetoed by then-President Barack Obama. Wednesday’s Senate action was among many votes this week on repealing or replacing elements of Obama’s signature healthcare law. {eoa}
