Not beating around the Bush, Cotton predicted that passing the House GOP leadership’s American Health Care Act, or AHCA, the supposed repeal and replacement of Obamacare, could very easily cost Republicans their majority in Congress.

“I’m afraid that if they vote for this bill, they’re going to put the House majority at risk next year,” Cotton warned,” referring to the 2018 mid-term elections. “And we have majorities in the House and the Senate and the White House, not only to repeal Obamacare and get health care reform right but to reform our taxes and our regulations and build up our military and to accomplish many other things.”
