So he's applauding this vote which means nothing. NOTHING.
It accomplishes nothing.

Did he also vote to exempt himself and his staff from obamacare?
That vote will actually matter.
Will he be applauding that vote too?

Will he vote to keep money for Obamacare out of the continuing resolution?

Tom Price is applauding this vote based on what is shown in this video - Werfel is not cooperating - fiery exchange between Issa and Werfel.

If you have the roll call vote list for this vote, please share.

The exemption was provided to congress - if there was a vote on that, please share that information.
Here’s one article:

However, the Office of Personnel Management now plans to rule that the government can continue to make a contribution to the health-care premiums of the lawmakers and their staff, it said, citing unnamed congressional sources and a White House official.

There was no vote. It was done by way of a “ruling” of the Office of Personnel Management.

The meaningless vote and Dr. Price's self-congratulatory message applauding the vote are designed to provide cover for failing to defund Obamacare.
