Republicans reveal Obamacare replacement bill

The US President Donald Trump tweeted he’s looking forward to making it really special, suggesting changes are in storeDemocrats immediately attacked the bill as a giveaway to the rich that will leave millions without health cover.Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said: “Senate Republicans with this bill are proposing to defund Planned Parenthood, to drastically slash Medicaid, which helps middle class families with loved ones in a nursing home, and sends those dollars to the very richest people in America.”The wrangling is set to continue with the bill’s real-world impact unknown, but the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office is expected to provide an estimate early next week.

Four senior Republicans say they are "not ready to back" the bill, Democrats attack the measure as "even meaner"
