17 February 2017 - President Donald Trump asserted Friday that Republican plans to repeal and replace Barack Obama’s healthcare reform law are “moving fast,” a counter to reports of division among Capitol Hill Republicans on the process.
Trump, noting that his pick for health and human services secretary, former Rep. Tom Price, had been confirmed, also took a dig at Democrats in an early-morning tweet, writing at about 5:15 a.m. that they had engineered “long delays” in confirming him.
“Despite the long delays by the Democrats in finally approving Dr. Tom Price, the repeal and replacement of ObamaCare is moving fast!” Trump said.
