Senate Passes First Phase of Obamacare Repeal

161024170315-obamacare-premiums-stat-780x439The Republican-controlled Senate began the process of repealing Obamacare early Thursday morning.

Washington Examiner reports:

“The Senate early Thursday morning passed a budget resolution, with 51 yays and 48 nays, that calls for legislation to repeal the controversial healthcare law. Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., was not present.

Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., was the only Republican to vote against the resolution. He previously opposed the resolution, saying that it creates a $9.7 trillion hole in the deficit over the next decade.

The vote came after a marathon series of votes on amendments mostly introduced by Democrats seeking to preserve parts of Obamacare. The non-binding resolution now goes to the House, which is expected to take it up on Friday.

Republicans said the resolution is necessary to start the process of repealing the law.”
