Obamacare still in danger, McCain says he backs block grants to States
http://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/349462-mccain-backs-graham-cassidy-obamacare-repeal-effort
Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) said Wednesday that he supports a newer version of an ObamaCare repeal-and-replace bill, throwing some support behind the last-ditch effort.
McCain said he backs a bill from Sens. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) and Bill Cassidy (R-La.) that would convert ObamaCare spending into block grants for states.
Asked if he supported it, McCain told reporters, "Yes. You think I wouldn't be?"
Make no mistake, the grants will never have enough money to cover the States and the Red States will divert the money to kill the ACA.
This is repeal without replace by another name.
