U.S. Senator Ben Sasse suggests an alternative approach of simply repealing the Affordable Care Act called Obamacare and replacing it at a later date. This is endorsed by president Trump. This is the new Republican strategy in July 2017. Forty nine senators voted in favor of this repeal in 2015, when president Obama vetoed this legislation. Two more senators are expected to support repeal according to Ben Sasse.

The Obama U.S. health care law, the Affordable Care Act of 2012, and public support- 2012-2017

03/23/2012

An average of major public opinion polls compiled by Real Clear Politics website shows 50.5% of Americans opposed the U.S. health care law in March 2012. By 2017 with high premiums and high deductibles the Obama Affordable Care Act was not seen by middle class as the solution to healthcare needs, though it helped the uninsured and the poor with subsidies. The Republican plan of Speaker Ryan and the House was seen as not sensitive to the needs of low income older Americans even as it sought to bring down premiums. As one middle class American, Mr. Riffle, in a 2017 survey by the Washington Post put it- the problem was the high cost of medical care in the U.S. and pricing of healthcare, until members of Congress used the plans on the insurance exchanges not much would happen to benefit most people.
