Obamacare could be repealed before election

Check Here For More Signatures To The Discharge Petition To Repeal Obamacare Latest Information
Obamacare could be repealed before election
A plan that would enable members of the U.S. House of Representatives to repeal Obamacare – whether health care takeover advocate House Speaker Nancy Pelosi wants it or not – is continuing to gain momentum.
In just the last few days, more names have been added to the discharge petition sponsored by U.S. Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa.
King told WND today the entire GOP leadership team in the House is on board, as well as the full delegations from California and Texas. He's working on obtaining the last few GOP signatures before turning his attention to the Democrats.
All of the GOP representatives and 34 Democrats opposed Obamacare when it was passed on a narrow 219-212 vote earlier this year. King said 212 representatives, at least, should be in favor of overturning it, since they opposed it before.
Then it will be up to the four, five or six Democrat votes that would be needed to turn from endorsement to rejection for it to advance.
"This is starting to come together," King said today. "All the Republicans [earlier] voted no. We should all be for repeal."
He said he's counting on the 34 Democrats who voted no to "demonstrate the courage of their convictions" by supporting a repeal plan.
Many will be running for re-election, King noted, in districts where the majority of voters want the law repealed. And there are Democrats who voted for Obamacare who face election challenges in a field of voters irritated by the law's new taxes and intrusions into their lives.
King told WND that if the discharge petition is successful, it will be a "resounding message" to Pelosi, who said Congress would have to vote for the health care takeover before people could know what was in it.
King's plan is to "pull out by the roots" the legislation that, among other things, will require citizens to "government-approved" health insurance whether they want it or not.
The fact that support is required from 218 members also means any plan thus endorsed likely would pass the 435-member House.
