Vice President Mike Pence blamed Democrats for standing in the way of repealing the Affordable Care Act and said the minority party is harming the country by not jumping on board with the Republican healthcare agenda.
Pence said in a speech in Wisconsin on Saturday that it’s clear to him and most other policymakers in the GOP that Obamacare is failing; he even described it as “dead.”
“Truth is, you’d have to be blinded by partisanship not to believe otherwise,” Pence said. “But, unfortunately, some people are; Democrats in Congress to be exact.”
Pence echoed many of President Trump’s criticism of obstinate Democrats who refuse to work with Republicans to repeal Obamacare.
