Senator John Thune says the latest GOP attempt at repealing Obamacare is good for South Dakota.
He says the Cassidy-Graham bill would replace major portions of the Affordable Care Act with block grants for states to design their own programs.
The GOP-backed bill needs the support of 50 Senators to insure passage. So far at least two Republican Senators are leaning against it.
Thune says if less than 50 Senators vote “yes” the threshold jumps to 60 votes after that day. The vote is expected sometime next week.
