To vote for a pig and a poke and im not going to tell people back in South Carolina that this product actually replaces obamacare because it does not. Ill turn it over to my great friend, john mccain. I have nothing to add. As i stated earlier this week, im not supportive of the legislation as it stands today. I am in close consultation with Arizona Governor doug duesy regarding the socalled skinny repeal and its potential impact on the state of arizona. My position on this proposal would be largely guided by his analysis of how it would impact the people of our state. My friends, this is legislation that directly affects the lives of the people in my state. I trust my governor. I trust his people. And he is looking carefully at this. He is looking carefully at the skinny bill repeal, but he is also looking at steps that need to be taken in addition to it. So i am convinced that we can move forward. But we have to have an assurance that it will go to a normal conference. Right now that
Mr. Graham hes back. So the third amigo. Heres the state of play. All three of us support the idea of continuing the process to get a good outcome for the American People when it comes to replacing obamacare. To find a product thats better for the American People. I have a bunch of ideas. Everybody has ideas. Weve been asked by our leadership for days now to vote on the least common denominator, the skinny bill, because the pitch is if you vote for this skinny bill, then we can go to conference and we can get my bill scored, we can get ted cruzs bill scored, we can get other peoples bills scored that has promise of maybe bringing us together. But theyre not scored yet. That makes imminent sense to me with one condition. We actually go to conference. Theres the increasing concern on my part and others that what the house will do is take whatever we pass, the socalled skinny bill, not take it to conference, go directly to the house floor, vote on it, and that goes to the president s desk
