For some conservatives in Congress, the failure of AHCA doesn’t mean the effort to replace Obamacare is dead.
One such member is Congressman Mo Brooks from Alabama. Every once in a great while someone comes along and states the obvious, and Brooks has done just that.
He filed a bill to repeal Obamacare that has just one sentence.
It reads thusly: “Effective as of Dec. 31, 2017, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is repealed, and the provisions of law amended or repealed by such Act are restored or revived as if such Act had not been enacted.”
Done.

BOOM!
THIS is how you do a repeal bill!
Alabama Rep. Mo Brooks cut through all the political mumbo-jumbo and filed a 2-page repeal bill today.
“This Act may be cited as the ‘Obamacare Repeal Act,’” the bill states.
Very simple. No need to be fancy or use unnecessary adjectives, right?
And in a single, to-the-point sentence, Brooks spells out how to enact a repeal of the disastrous Obamacare debacle:
“Effective as of Dec. 31, 2017, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is repealed, and the provisions of law amended or repealed by such Act are restored or revived as if such Act had not been enacted,” the bill states.
