House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan said he rejects the premise that President Barack Obamas healthcare law cant be repealed now that its first class of 7 million enrollees has signed up.
I dont think it can last, Ryan said in an interview with Bloomberg Television to air on Political Capital with Al Hunt this weekend.
Ryan this week unveiled a budget plan that seeks to repeal the 2010 law known as Obamacare and would revise the U.S. safety net in an effort to eliminate the deficit in 10 years. The House will vote on the plan next week. House Democrats will release their alternative as soon as Monday, April 7.
The Republican budget proposal will serve as a contrast with Democrats fiscal priorities before the U.S. midterm election on Nov. 4. Senate Democratic leaders have said they plan to tie House members vying for Senate seats in Colorado, Montana and Louisiana to Ryans proposal.
This is the fourth year weve passed a budget like this, fourth year weve said heres how we plan on balancing the budget and paying off the debt, Ryan said.
Ryan and Senate Budget Committee Chairman Patty Murray agreed in December on a two-year budget deal that sets top-line spending at $1.014 trillion for the 2015 fiscal year that starts Oct. 1. As such, Republicans dont have to prepare a budget, Ryan said, though we think we should say what we believe in if we dont like the direction the countrys headed.

He didnt attempt anything,
These nonbinding budget resolutions were never meant to be law, and never will.
These are just to get a bit of noise out of Dems to get the gullible GOP drones to rally around him in defense.
But few here buy it anymore, they know the real Ryan budget is the one that he and Patty Murray came up with and was signed into law by Obama.,
We can ‘win’ by electing conservatives to office - be electing MORE than democrats elect.
We can’t ‘win’ if they have 55 votes and we have 45 votes. If you know of a different ‘math’ - one where 45 is greater than 55 let me know.
I agree with you on this... I'm so tired of being given 'democrat-lite' people to vote for... white democrats are running the most extreme liberal they can find.
