Senate Republicans are targeting ObamaCare in the chamber’s marathon session on budget amendments known as a “vote-a-rama” on Thursday.
Senators have proposed 85 healthcare-related amendments, including a full repeal of ObamaCare, a ban on any ObamaCare marketing and a shift of Medicaid into states' control. The symbolic proposals are among more than 600 amendments that the Senate will consider during the “vote-a-rama,” which is expected to last through late Thursday.

It might have just passed its “five year anniversary” but the commie ‘RAT scam has only been operational for a little over a year. DemocRATS do too many recreational drugs. More Fun With Numbers.
Well, if they replace Obamacare with what amounts to federal control of healthcare (socialized medicine), that’s not an improvement.
The clear alternative to Obamacare is THE FREE MARKET ECONOMY.
The feds were the reason we got into this healthcare mess beginning in the 70’s. The feds create their own crises. Prior to the 70’s there was no “healthcare crisis” just like there was no “energy crisis”. We have always had the finest healthcare in the world for the very reason it was based on the voluntary cooperation of the free-market economy, creating the highest quality at the lowest competitive costs in the world.
Start with refunding and eliminating the tax penalties!
Good starting point.
Good ending point is getting the freaking feds out of our healthcare and out of our lives. :)
Helluva way to run a gubamint, huh?
Never have so many lobbyists been out to get a chunk of the action..
and Schumer is in the wings *-?
