A leading House conservative is warning Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) he should not quit fighting to pass legislation to repeal and replace ObamaCare through the Senate.

Rep. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.), the chairman of the conservative House Freedom Caucus, is not happy about talk that Senate Republicans might give up that effort and instead work with Democrats on legislation to shore up troubled insurance markets.

"If we're waving the white flag on something that we've campaigned against for many years, it's not a good sign for what comes down the pipe.
How many white flags will we raise just when the going gets rough?" Meadows told The Hill in an interview.

"It's incumbent on us to work, to negotiate and find a happy medium that gets 51 votes in the Senate, 218 votes in the House and send it to the President," he added.
