Today the repukes will finally pass a bill gutting the ACA and defunding Planned Parenthood

[cali]

After dozens of failed attempts to undo President Barack Obama's health care law, the GOP-led Congress will finally put a bill on the president's desk striking at the heart of his signature legislative achievement.

Obama will veto the bill, and so the ultimate outcome will be the same as the many previous GOP attempts to repeal "Obamacare." But Wednesday's vote in the House will mark the first time such a bill makes it all the way to the White House.

Unlike past efforts that were blocked by Senate Democrats, this time the legislation was written under special rules protecting it from a Democratic filibuster. It passed the Senate late last year, and so Wednesday's House vote will send it straight to Obama.

House GOP leaders, opening their 2016 legislative session, said Wednesday's vote and Obama's subsequent veto will lay bare a stark choice between the parties in a presidential election year. The legislation also cuts federal funding for Planned Parenthood.

The Orwellian name of this legislation is Restoring Americans' Healthcare Freedom Reconciliation Act. I'm watching the debate on C-SPAN. Haven't done that in a while. Appalling.
