Whip Hoyer Searches for House Republicans' Hidden ACA Repeal Bill

WASHINGTON, DC - Today, House Democratic Whip Steny H. Hoyer (MD) asked Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy where House Republicans are hiding their draft legislation to repeal the Affordable Care Act, which is reportedly being marked up in committee next week. After Leader McCarthy could not tell Whip Hoyer where the bill is located or whether the committee would mark it up next week, Mr. Hoyer decided to search for it himself - and he let the public join him via Facebook live.

"If Republicans want to repeal the Affordable Care Act, Members of Congress and the American people deserve to see the legislation they are considering," said Whip Hoyer. "Democrats will continue to ask the GOP: where is the bill" What are you hiding?"
