Paul and Tonko demand access to room "containing Obamacare replacement plans", find nothing

Two lawmakers went to a room at the Capitol on Thursday that they thought contained a draft of the House Republicans' plan to repeal and replace ObamaCare.

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) and Rep. Paul Tonko (D-N.Y.) tried to gain entry to H157, but were told a draft of the House bill was not in the room.

“We want to see the bill. We have many objections,” Paul said outside of the room.

“We're here asking for a written copy of this because this should be an open and transparent process.”
