U.S. Senate Rejects Obamacare Repeal Again, Eyes a ‘Skinny’ Bill

President Donald Trump, who has been in office for six months, has come down hard on his fellow Republicans for failing to act on Obamacare, something that he had promised repeatedly in his election campaign last year. Some Senate Republicans were growing uncomfortable with the chaotic debate.

“We’ve got to have a more organized process,” Republican Senator Ron Johnson said, noting the skinny repeal would simply kick the issue down the road. “We just don’t have the courage and really the intestinal fortitude to suck it up and . . . do this right.”
