Freedom Caucus Slams ObamaCare Replacement, Promises 'Clean Repeal'

FoxInsider ^

[cornelis]

Members of the House Freedom Caucus, a group of some of the most fiscally conservative representatives, held a press conference criticizing the Republican leadership's ObamaCare replacement bill.

They announced they will be re-introducing a "clean repeal" bill tomorrow, which they said received unanimous Republican support last year.

[TADSLOS]

This POS GOPe plan is so far off from Tom Price’s plan, it’s ridiculous. Leave it to republicans to take a golden opportunity and trash it like yesterday’s newspaper.

[198ml]

DREADFUL. It is an absolute betrayal.

[Sirius Lee]

Ryan scrapped all the sh*t out of the homobamacare crap sammich, plopped it onto a different brioche and said "Eat it! And by the way Congress is still exempt."

BTW he's up for reelection in 3 short years. Time to Cantorize his ass.

[Trump Girl Kit Cat]

Never mind contacting congress critters go straight to Trump via Twitter and Facebook!!! You can also go straight to the web site at White House!!!

[Wayne07]

This is the plan Trump wants - he is the one who said he wants to keep the pre-existing conditions exemption and adults on their parents plan. YO might as well be calling this Trumpocare.

[Fiddlstix]

Lyin’ RINO Ryan IS as much a traitor to America as 0bozo & company!

[198ml]

There are no words. The GOP’s behavior this entire closed-door RINOcare bill is EVERYTHING ppl say and do hate about DC and politics — and SOOOO much of the GOP Congress got elected saying da EXACT same thing I just said. Despicable. Despicable. Despicable.

[Ray76]

Ryan is Pelosi lite.

[Trump Girl Kit Cat]

LYIN RYAN’S problem IS he is NOT on Trumps side he wants to hang this POS around Trumps neck he KNOWS this will fail and POS RYAN is ALL FOR single payer he IS a big government guy!!! Plus if this bill fails he has knocked Trump down a notch!!! I am afraid Trump wants to move this along so badly he will fall into RYAN’S trap!!! WE NEED to get to Trump not congresscritters they are USELESS and don’t give a DAMNED thing about us!!!

[RoseofTexas]

Probably just a ploy by backstabbing Ryan to delay the repeal of OVOMITcare! The whole bunch of freakin losers act like the party that lost everything....the EVIL RATS play the spineless wimps like a STRADIVARIUS violin!! They are not ruling like the party that won BIGLY..sad!!

[Fiddlstix]

You Got That Right!

[Jane Long]

I agree!!

I am sick of these ObamaCareLite sycophants pushing this drivel!!

Dear POTUS....we who elected you to specifically REPEAL the disastrous 0bamacare say NO WAY to this new cr@p sandwich version 2.0

He## NO!

[Trump Girl Kit Cat]

This IS NOT the plan Trump wants, Trump wants purchasing across state lines, Trump wants STATES making decisions on healthcare, Trump wants LOWER premiums and deductibles NOTHING in this plan does this!!! Once the government has their fingers in ANYTHING the costs skyrocket, WE ALL KNOW THIS!!!

[VanDeKoik]

“The Republicans have all three branches - and we still have to fight tooth and nail.”

We have one branch.

The two others are just not controlled by Democrats.

[ForYourChildren]

Federal control of healthcare is ILLEGAL!!

> ... received unanimous Republican support last year.

We don’t want that. It’s tainted by compromise.
Kill the damn Obamacare and be done with it.
Anything new needs to be created from the ground up.

Actually, that's exactly what we want. The part of the sentence you're missing from your quote is: "They announced they will be re-introducing a "clean repeal" bill tomorrow, which they said received unanimous Republican support last year.". That's the full repeal that they need to do. That all the Repubs supported all during Obama's terms, that they won't pass again because now they know it would actually pass House and Senate, and Trump would actually sign it. It was only show votes before.

[marygam]

Fix this mess NOW! You had 7 years to come up with a perfect plan and you squandered your time. I blame Ryan and Senior leadership. Or should I just call out the damned Rino’s AGAIN?

[ForYourChildren]

"They announced they will be re-introducing a "clean repeal" bill tomorrow, which they said received unanimous Republican support last year."

We shall see!!

[SharpRightTurn]

“Members of the House Freedom Caucus ... announced they will be re-introducing a “clean repeal” bill tomorrow, which they said received unanimous Republican support last year.”

So what’s different from last year? Since they have a Republican president now, it’s not a Ryan/McConnell worthless show vote anymore. It could really whittle down the size of fedzilla and that’s the last thing these CINOs want.

[sheana]

Exactly. Kill the ACA and pull it out by the roots. Then pass bills one at a time that do what they think needs to be done to health insurance. This is health insurance not healthcare.
You would think the mess created by Obamacare would have taught these morons something. They’re slow learners.
