WASHINGTON — Senate Republicans, who’ve promised to repeal the Affordable Care Act for seven years, took a major step toward that goal, unveiling a bill Thursday to make deep cuts in Medicaid and end the mandate that most Americans have health insurance.
For the 10th time in the last several months, Republicans on Wednesday blocked a Democratic resolution offered on the House floor requesting President Trump’s tax returns.
The measure was defeated on a procedural vote of 227-188 that fell largely along party lines.
