Mark Meadows to-do list: Torpedoing GOP leaderships tentative plans to take as long as three years to replace Obamacare, Politico reports.
Meadows said the proposal will be the first big fight I see coming for the Freedom Caucus.
He added: It should be repealed and replaced, and all of that should be done in the 115th Congress not left to a future Congress to deal with.
