We demand FULL repeal. Not partial repeal and fix the rest.

They don’t get it. Right now Democrats OWN the train wreck.
Lock, stock and barrel.

Put GOP fingerprints on it now and the GOP will start paying the price.

First page gives a major hint..this is a TWEAK, not “repeal and replace”.

For instance, here’s right from page one..

IN GENERAL.—Subsection (b) of section 4002 of
7 the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (42
8 U.S.C. 300u–11), as amended by section 5009 of the 21st
9 Century Cures Act, IS AMENDED.

Drain the swamp. These guys are NOT. LISTENING. TO. US.

REPEAL THIS GOD-AWFUL BILL ONCE AND FOR ALL!!!!! Don’t “Amend”, tweak or otherwise add to the nightmare that was passed previously. This thing is circling the drain and it’s only bound to get worse..

“A/k/a RyanCare.”

Yep. Again, Wisconsin apologizes for this GOPe piker.

However, we DID flip WI to RED for Trump...so we’ve got THAT going for us, though MOST of the credit goes to Governor Walker...who UNLEASHED the SHACKLED Union Drones in our state!

Luv My Gov! :)

Idiots...repeal it...don’t replace it. Leave it to the idiot RINOs to have their heads inserted very, very far up their collective a**es.

There are a few things we should keep. Covering pre-existing conditions and standardized forms come to mind.

My very quick, down and dirty scan (more time will be spent) does not find any repeal of mandates. Maybe I’m just missing it in the 100+ pages.

Walker did a great job helping to flip WI Red.
I’m not sure what Ryan is doing or why we need him.

I will say it again, OBAMACARE WILL NEVER BE REPEALED in any way, shape or fashion. I watched COUNTLESS Government Unions proudly marching and advocating for OBAMACARE on TV all across this Country.

There is ONLY ONE WAY to make it happen:

Executive Orders

1. All waivers to the Affordable Care act are hereby repealed.

2. There shall be NO funds drawn from the treasury to pay for Health Insurance for ANY Federal Employee except Members of the Armed Services.

3. ALL Federal Employees except members of the US Armed Services, SHALL purchase their own personal and Family Health Insurance from the Affordable Care Exchange in the state they legally reside.

And to make sure it is Bipartisan, President Trump should VETO it every Time and FORCE them to Override his Veto to Repeal this Monstrosity.

Sign these 3 orders and it will be FULLY REPEALED in Less than 30 days.

NOT UNTIL, Anyone want to make a BET???

I would also consider another Executive Order Withholding All Transportation Funds from All States that do Not have Their Public Employees enrolled in Obamacare, just to Prove a Point.

When and ONLY WHEN Government Lives under the Same Laws as us will anything substantial happen

I AM TAKING BETS that the Rino Party Will NEVER REPEAL OBAMACARE!

Does it repeal the Independent Payment Advisory Board (IPAB)?

If not, it remains unconstitutional and should be vetoed.

The Republicans will give it all up for 20 million people. They’ll own Obamacare. We need to call our I reps after reading this and tell them what needs to be done or repealed.

Ryan is there to make sure NOTHING ever comes back to Hurt Obama, Clinton, and the Leadership of BOTH PARTIES

Trump knows that but believes that he can negotiate a solution to Obamacare.

The House will take a stab and Trump and Price will knock it back...and keep knocking it back until Trump gets a bill he can sign.

Trump is negotiating...aiming bigly...he wants to be THE greatest president of modern times.
