Rep. Mark Walker, R-N.C., said Monday that he could not get behind the Republican’s current plan to repeal and replace ObamaCare. Walker, who chairs the Republican Study Committee, which has 170 members, told Bloomberg that he would recommend that his fellow members reject the plan, too. “The bill contains what increasingly appears to be a new health-insurance entitlement with a Republican stamp on it,” he said. For many in the party, those problems — while major — are outweighed by pledges they’ve made for years to repeal Obama’s 2010 law and substitute it with a GOP alternative. Politically they must do something,” Douglas Holtz-Eakin, a Republican economist and health analyst, said Monday.
