Watch: Dem says he’d be ‘very surprised’ if Democrats back GOP healthcare plan
At least one Democratic lawmaker says he doesn’t see fellow House Democrats voting for the Republicans’ Obamacare repeal and replace bill if it makes it to the floor in its current form.
“I would be very surprised to see Democrats support this,” Rep. David Cicilline (D-R.I.) tells The Hill’s Molly K. Hooper.
{mosads}”I don’t expect there’s any Democrat that supports the bill that Republicans are putting forth,” he adds, saying that among other things, the GOP plan would “increase costs on Americans, make prescription drugs more expensive for seniors [and] cover less people.”
