Page 14 - Replacement Plan News Today

Figure out the replacement and the idea fell apart within a few weeks. logisticsly, it didnt make sense. a lot of senators from conservative rand paul to moderate lisa murkowski said we need to do this all at once and back in either late january, early february, you know, the president sided with them. rand paul took credit for convincing president trump that we have to do this as a package deal. and its kind of where everyone has been. there was a thought about this a few months ago, the senate...

Having coverage. we could dispute those numbers. the point, to say in either case, there is absolutely an adjustment period, but i dont know that its that much as with the replacement plan. >> let me get your take on if your opinion changed since april. you wrote an op-ed in "time" magazine. you write, given this debate, give this debate the time it deserves. im not a wine drinker, but great bottles of wine need aging and health care ref sents a most precious bottle for americans. should congres...

That if when the senate comes back a week from monday, if they dont have a plan ready to go to repeal and replace at the same time, the conservatives would like to see a repeal bill put forward like one of those they voted on time and time again when president obama was in office and they knew it would be vetoed. they would do a complete complete repeal of obamacare but they would delay implementation of it for a year. essentially set a really hard deadline for themselves to then come up with a ...

Support a replacement plan. number 2, you need to tell your constituent whats youre doing to replace the law. u.susan collins of maine are fo the idea. rand paul has said hes spoken to the senate leadership and the president about this and said lets keep our word to repeal and work on replacing right away. mitch mcconnell continue to find a path of 50 votes for the gop senate healthcare package. >> i think there will be various proposals, pieces submitted to the cbo to get their feedback and wha...

That hasnt changed. >> reporter: so, if we unpack this comment by sarah huckabee sanders a bit, brooke, essentially what shes saying is that the overall goal hasnt changed. the president still wants to repeal and replace obamacare, but the way to get there may be whats changing a bit, and brooke, we have to remind our viewers that this was an option that was on the table for republicans from the very beginning. >> once upon a time. >> reporter: yes, exactly. they could have gone down the road of...

The august break and spent all day, every day crafting a replacement bill for a vote on labor day. sasse played out this morning on "fox & friends." what i am recommending is that we give comfort to the american people by repealing the maximum amount of obamacare that we can but at a one-year delay delay before that would be effective, so there is an action forcing event so that we get to work so that we are actually working to do the replacement plan. we need repeal, we need replaced, trying to...

Replace obamacare, so instead well just repeal it and get to it later as the president suggested? >> i dont think theyre gonna go for that. i think republicans and democrats are all aware of the fact that you cant take something away and not give a replacement plan. i think president trump was quite reckless to suggest that. im not surprised that they are suggesting that. it reminded me that they put a bill forward that congress men had to work a 40 hour work week. >> julie: they are often criti...

Billion. as both a candidate and now as president, donald trump has been pretty clear on what he wants on an obamacare replacement plan, what he wanted that accomplish. >> i am going to take care of everybody. i dont care if it costs me votes or not. everybody will be taken care of much better than now. >> were going to take of everyone. were taking care of people. and people are going to pay much less and get it so good. >> theyre going to have private health care. but i will not allow people t...

2026, 22 million fewer americans will have insurance if it passes. a lot of asterisks here. but the plan also cuts the national deficit by $321 billion. as both a candidate and now as president, donald trump has been pretty clear on what he wants on an obamacare replacement plan, what he wanted that accomplish. >> i am going to take care of everybody. i dont care if it costs me votes or not. everybody will be taken care of much better than now. >> were going to take of everyone. were taking care...

Makes this task even more challenging. as republicans, we have to come to accept the fact that we have promised a replacement plan and we have to make sure our replacement plan does provided a get coverage. and one of the reasons i voted against the house version of the health care bill was because there was simply too hard a landing on medicaid, that the tax credits werent sufficient. so the senate is trying to put together a better bill. im still reviewing it. im anxious to see the cbo score a...
