ObamaCare repeal: GOP seeks new game plan

GOP lawmakers are expressing hope that a vote on legislation to repeal and replace ObamaCare can be held as soon as next week despite a severe divide in the conference that thwarted the White House's hopes of holding a vote within President Trump’s first 100 days in office.

GOP leaders say they won’t call a vote until the new legislation has enough support to pass, and that new version appears to have lost the votes of centrists as it has gained endorsement from conservatives.

Some lawmakers are also discussing changes to the bill to help bring moderates on board. 

How to balance the demands of the two groups is a difficult task, and no one has found the right formula yet. 

Rep. Charlie Dent (R-Pa.), co-chairman of the moderate Tuesday Group, said “it’d be hard” to design a bill that both he and the Freedom Caucus could support.
