WATCH: Conservative lawmakers explain opposition to GOP healthcare bill

Three conservative lawmakers on Wednesday joined a growing list of Republicans coming out against the House GOP’s current healthcare bill.

{mosads}GOP Reps. Louie Gohmert (Texas), Walter Jones (N.C.) and Steve King (Iowa) told The Hill’s Molly K. Hooper that they wouldn’t vote for a proposal introduced Monday by their leadership team.

“I do not know how any Republican conservative, which I am one of those, can vote for the bill when you don’t know what the cost is going to be,” Jones said in an interview.

But Rep. Dennis Ross (R-Fla.), a defender of the leadership measure, argued that the bill to repeal and replace ObamaCare is just a starting point.

“This process starts off with the ball moving from the five, 10, 20-yard line, and moving down the line. It’s never the perfect product when it’s filed,” Ross told The Hill.

Gohmert and King insisted that the bill will require a lot of massaging before it is palatable for conservatives.

For his part, Rep. Mo Brooks (R-Ala.) wants the House to consider full repeal of ObamaCare.

“That’s what we tried to do in the past, that’s what we ought to try to do in future … the states are better situated to handle this healthcare issue than is the federal government,” Brooks said in an interview.
