Rep. Scalise: ‘We’re Closer Today to Repealing ObamaCare than We’ve Been Before’

SCALISE: "After this morning the resolve of our conference to repeal ObamaCare and replace it has never been stronger. I think it was really positive, the openness that members have to work and to get to yes that weren't there. And I do think it was important to point out that the vast majority of our conference was already there in support of the bill that we want to put on President Trump’s desk. To my Democrat colleagues who were celebrating Friday’s action, I think their celebration is premature because I think we’re closer today to repealing ObamaCare than we’ve ever been before and surely even closer than we were Friday. So we’re going to keep working. This issue isn’t going away. ObamaCare continues to fail the American people and you’ll continue to see double digit increases in premiums because ObamaCare doesn’t work. So the fact that our conference is more resolved than ever to repeal this law is very encouraging and we’re not going to stop until we get it done."
