Paul Ryan: Our ObamaCare Replacement Will Mirror My Previous ‘Gold Standard’ Budget

RUSH EXCERPT:

RYAN: "I'm not worried at all. I'm not really worried at all, we are doing this hand in glove with President Trump, with Tom Price, HHS secretary, counterparts in the Senate. We are working on the same piece of legislation. Let me describe in general what we are talking about here. Giving states control of the etiquette program, which is something that conservatives have been fighting for for years. Everyone of my budgets that I wrote as the conservative gold standard for Republicans was to give states control of Medicaid. And on the tax fraud, we have long been saying that we need equalize the tax care bill that code for America. It discovered its people who do not get health care from their jobs. There is a huge tax benefit if you get health care at work. If you've got to go buy your health insurance, no tax benefit for you. What conservatives have long said is let's equalize the tax treatment for health care so it doesn't matter if you get health care at work when not at work, let's give you the same kind of tax benefit. You can go buy back what you want to buy. Go into the free market as a consumer and buy the plan of your choosing with health savings accounts as well. This is what we've long stood on as conservatives. It is the plan that we ran on in all of 2016 that we said if we get the chance of having a Republican president or a Republican house and Republican Senate, we will repeal and replace ObamaCare. Guess what? We are keeping that promise and that's exactly what we are doing."
