Senate Majority Leader, Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) announced on Tuesday that Republicans would see a discussion draft of the healthcare reform legislation on Thursday.
McConnell also declared that the press would get an opportunity to see the bill on Thursday. This addresses numerous concerns from the Democrat leadership that Republicans are keeping the bill secret.
McConnell stated at a press conference today:
Weve continued our discussions on the way forward on healthcare, as all of you know, because Ive reported it weekly. For weeks now, weve been in intense discussions with all Republican senators, both in working groups that all members were free to come to if they chose to, and in the larger lunches that we have on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.

repeal - ONLY
What do you want to bet is even worse than the suckup, milquetast thing the house passed.
The left will call out its forces. Marches in the streets. Speeches in congress. Angry denunciations by moronic liberals. Fake-outrage discussions on TV talk shows.
RomneyCARE/ObamaCARE must be repealed by the EXEMPT.
But they will not.
They are liars - Traitors, who spend more time
ATTACKING THE PRESIDENT then honoring their promise.
“The left will call out its forces. Marches in the streets. Speeches in congress. Angry denunciations by moronic liberals. Fake-outrage discussions on TV talk shows.”
Get them all in one place and MOAB. Problem solved. Maybe at the same time they can hold a #BLM, Antifa and AAPAC rally. But I repeat myself.
“This addresses numerous concerns from the Democrat leadership that Republicans are keeping the bill secret.”
Yes, because I remember a LOT of public information released and a LOT of Hometown Meetings conducted by members of the Socialist Democrat Party and Prez. 0bama when they were shoving 0bamacare down our gullets via smokey back room meetings and midnight votes!
STFU, Socialists! We WON! YOU LOST! Suck it! :)
What the House developed, passed by four votes.
If some folks think we’re going to get anything better than that right now, they’re stoned.
I’d love to see repeal myself, but it isn’t going to happen, and if Trump was Jesus on earth, He couldn’t so any better as a man.
The sentiment in the House and Senate is what it is.
I wish folks would quit spewing “REPEAL” as if they are the first ones to think of it. S T H U
If you want nothing done fine. Whatever happens from here on out will be blamed on us. We either get some small fixes in place, or we take the heat.
As policy costs increase, who gets blamed for that? Obama? LMAO, no, Trump will now.
Folks, get a grip.
Life is what it is, and at times there just isn’t a quick fix.
>>McConnell would never go rhe nuke option.<<
I don’t think he needs to here because of the reconciliation procedure being used. But I wouldn’t bet against him going nuclear when it gets to passing a budget bill. The days of kowtowing to the left to get a budget passed are over, in my opinion.
I could also make a pretty good case that doing away with the filibuster would lead to better, more bipartisan, legislation. We’d get some centrist Democrats on board if they knew that it only took one or two of them to get a bill passed, instead of the eight or more it takes now.
Government has been in control for years. What do you think Medicare and Medicaid is?
