BREAKING: McCain Announces He Will Vote No On Graham-Cassidy Bill
John McCain just killed his party’s Obamacare repeal bill again.
Senator John McCain announced Friday that he will vote no on his party’s last-ditch effort to repeal Obamacare.
The Arizona Senator said he cannot “in good conscience” support the Obamacare repeal bill.
“I cannot in good conscience vote for the Graham-Cassidy proposal,” the Arizona Republican said in a statement.
“I believe we could do better working together, Republicans and Democrats, and have not yet really tried. Nor could I support it without knowing how much it will cost, how it will effect insurance premiums, and how many people will be helped or hurt by it. Without a full CBO score, which won’t be available by the end of the month, we won’t have reliable answers to any of those questions.”
Once news broke of John McCain’s no vote, Jimmy Kimmel tweeted out his thanks to the Arizona Senator.
Thank you @SenJohnMcCain for being a hero again and again and now AGAIN
