THE DAILY QUOTE |
---|
“Senate Health Committee Chairman Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.) on Thursday told GOP colleagues bluntly that their efforts to repeal ObamaCare have failed and urged them to change course. ‘We’ve had about 50 votes, maybe more, and we lost them all. And we made thousands of speeches and we lost them all… I would ask what’s conservative about unaffordable premiums?... What’s conservative about creating chaos so millions can’t buy health insurance?’”
