A key group of conservative Republicans endorsed the replacement plan for ObamaCare after President Trump agreed to tougher rules on Medicaid.
“One hundred percent of the nos are yeses” Trump said at a meeting with 13 members of the Republican Study Committee.
“I want to let the world know: I am 100 percent in favor,” he added.
To win that support, the White House agreed to let states voluntarily impose work requirements on Medicaid beneficiaries and to choose Medicaid block grants as an option.
Rep. Mark Walker (R-NC), the committee chairman, told The Wall Street Journal that the commitments from the president moved members “from undecided, or no, to a positive yes this morning.”
