This was intentional.
Leadership added a conservative amendment that the progressive Rs would vote against and a liberal amendment that conservatives would vote against.
NO votes: Collins, Corker, Cotton, Graham, Heller, Lee,
Moran, Murkowski, Paul

I find it disturbing that at least Murowski was holding out for PORK :( She needs to be primaried!!!!
Would like to know the reasons the others VOTED NO...AFTER YEARS OF SENDING REPEAL BILLS TO WHITE HOUSE...
So 62,979,879 citizens voted for President Trump and yet 9 senators voted to stop repeal???? Why would Cotton, Lee, and Paul vote no on repeal??? They are conservatives :(
This amendment wasn’t a repeal. It was repeal AND replace with a weird hybrid of changes to Obamacare.
Paul said Mitch promised him a vote on a repeal amendment if Paul voted to allow debate, which he did. So a true vote on repeal should be coming.
Those three voted no because this was not repeal, it was repair Obamacare.
It leaves too much of it in place.
The others don’t want any of it repealed.
