Rep. Justin Amash and the House Freedom Caucus say talks of a deal with the White House on tweaks to legislation that would repeal the 2010 health care law are premature.

Several HFC members suggested after a Monday meeting with Trump administration officials, including Vice President Mike Pence and White House Chief of Staff Reince Priebus, that they would see a legislative outline of some of the administration’s proposed changes to their health care package on Tuesday.

Reps. Scott Desjarlais, Mark Sanford, and Trent Franks suggested they had heard substantive details from the administration and remained hopeful that a deal could be reached.

But Amash and the Freedom Caucus tweeted responses after a report in Politico that the conservative rabble rousers were considering a deal.

Repeal it root and branch...it's really that simple.
The libs/dems of today are the Quislings of former years. The cowards who would vote a fraud into office in exchange for handouts from the devil.

Here lies in honored glory an American soldier, known but to God

THE ESTABLISHMENT IS THE PROBLEM...NOT THE SOLUTION

Republicans Don't Need A Back Bench...They Need a BACKBONE!

Jared Kushner's brother Josh is making money hand over fist off of obamacare so I'm not expecting any meaningful changes.

Amash and others in the group simply said they will consider this plan AFTER they get the particulars which they do not yet have.  They want the actual plan wording before they commit to the plan.

What the hell does it matter if the Amish are on board with health care deal? They still use leeches for headaches for crying out loud.
