What’s actually in the latest House GOP health care bill?
The House of Representatives will vote Thursday on a plan to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act, known as Obamacare, a development that could bring Republicans one step closer to fulfilling one of President Trump’s campaign promises and achieving a policy goal they’ve sought for years.
House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-California, projected confidence Wednesday after GOP leaders announced Thursday’s vote. “It’ll pass,” he said. “It’s a good bill.”
But what’s in it?
The plan is largely similar to the bill crafted by GOP leaders earlier this year that was pulled from the House floor in March due to insufficient support. Lawmakers have made a few crucial changes, however, that have won support from some members who didn’t back the earlier legislation.
Here’s a brief rundown of what’s in the House GOP health care bill, and how it could affect you.

I don’t know who I trust less, Nancy Pelosi or Paul Ryan. They both turn my stomach.

Well as tough as this one seems the Senate will be many times tougher. It will be a small step.
I see recent polls show a 50-50 % split on getting rid of the personal mandate.( it's phrased as keeping premiums lower which is it's purpose, not forcing us to buy something we cant use)
Typically its the opposite but this is what repeal politics do.
And ironically the personal mandate is a joke.
Removing it means nothing.
No one has to pay that.
But with 50-50 Republicans will get little credit for getting rid of it.
Ping for later reading.
