Earlier this week, Senate Republicans failed twice to overturn the ACA - either by repealing the law outright or repealing it and at the same time replacing it with a new version.
Of the two failed votes earlier in the week, nine Republicans first joined all the Democrats in rejecting a proposed replacement health care bill crafted by Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. The second effort called for outright repeal of Obamacare in two years' time, during which period Congress would be expected to agree on replacement legislation; that was rejected by a similar margin, with seven Republicans joining the unified Democratic minority bloc.
美国国会参议院部分废除实施7年的奥巴马医保法的努力星期五凌晨以失败告终。三位共和党参议员,亚利桑那州参议员麦凯恩、阿拉斯加州参议员穆尔科斯基和缅因州参议员柯林斯跟民主党人一起投了反对票,最终以49票赞成,51票反对的结果击败了共和党人废除奥巴马医保法的努力。
投票结束后不久,美国总统川普在推特上对倒戈的共和党人提出批评。川普写道:“三个共和党人和48个民主党人辜负了美国人民的期望。正像我一开始所说的,让奥巴马医保法自行崩溃,然后再着手解决。等着瞧吧!”
这份所谓的“简化版”议案将不再要求大多数美国民众购买医保否则面临罚款,也不再要求雇员超过50人的公司为员工提供医保。
