Republicans say this weeks health care debate may ultimately lead to a bare-bones bill that merely ends the mandate that all have insurance or pay a penalty.
On a 52-47 vote, the Senate confirmed Congressman Tom Price as the head of the Department of Health and Human Services. What's next? A fight on the Affordable Care Act.
Tensions between Staples and President Obama reignited this week when the president slammed the store for reportedly limiting hours over the health care law.
In a moment of irony not lost on observers, the GOP-led House Rules Committee will spend Groundhog Day considering the 114th Congresss first destined-to-be-vetoed attempt to repeal Obamacare.
