House conservatives won't back spending bill with ObamaCare payments
By Jessie Hellmann - 11/30/17 01:33 PM EST

House conservatives said they won't support a short-term spending bill to fund the government if it contains provisions to "bail out" insurance companies.

A deal between moderate GOP Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine), President Trump and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) would likely attach two bipartisan measures to stabilize ObamaCare's insurance markets to the spending bill in exchange for her vote on tax reform.

But conservatives say that wouldn't pass the House.

This is why we should only support conservatives. "Moderate" Pubs vote like Rats and support big govt intervention in the economy. Why should Tax payers give money to private insurance companies?

EXCELLENT news!

They should stick to that position for as long as it takes!
