Washington, D.C. – Congressman Andy Biggs released the following statement regarding the Senate's progress on Obamacare repeal:
A day after support for Senate Republicans' health-care bill collapsed, deputy White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders banned TV cameras and live audio broadcasts from Tuesday's media briefing.

"You're speaking as if this is over and done, and it certainly isn't," she told reporters.
Hours after the collapse of the American Health Care Act in the Senate Monday night , the White House signaled on Tuesday that it was open to working with lawmakers in both the House and Senate for direct repeal of the Affordable Care Act (the official name of Obamacare.)

PHOENIX — The Affordable Care Act, commonly referred to as Obamacare, would be no more if an act introduced by an Arizona congressman passes.
U.S. Rep. Andy Biggs introduced the Responsible Path to Full Obamacare Repeal Act on Tuesday, just one day after the Senate's latest plan to repeal and replace the bill failed.
Biggs said he wanted to introduce the bill to ward off concern from voters who may see the Republican Party's inability to remove the health care law as reneging on campaign promises.
