They don't have a replacement plan that can pass Congress.

The freedom caucus. They are not happy with the bill introduced by the leadership (Ryan and co).
Its an important distinction. There are many factions in the gop who are upset for one reason or another. As predicted by many observers, they are never going to be able to agree amongst themselves let alone pass anything.
