Two Republican senators on Monday unveiled one of the first ObamaCare replacement bills of the new Congress -- a state-centric plan they admit is imperfect but describe as a tangible start to overhauling the 2010 health care law on a bipartisan basis. “We recognize that our bill is not perfect,” said Maine Sen. Susan Collins, who introduced the 2017 Patient Freedom Act with Louisiana Sen. Bill Cassidy, a physician and fellow Republican. President Trump, like other Washington Republicans, campaigned on promises, if elected, to swiftly repeal and replace ObamaCare. She also acknowledged being unsure about the impact of the executive order Trump signed Friday to ease the regulatory burden of ObamaCare. The Kentucky Republican also said Trump will be able to “undo a lot of it himself” and that eight out of 10 Americans want ObamaCare replaced.
