House repeals health care act, including IHCIA, once again
Posted: Friday, May 17, 2013
The House voted 229-195 to pass H.R.45, a bill that repeals the Affordable Care Act.
All Republicans voted to repeal the ACA. That included the only two tribal members in Congress -- Rep. Tom Cole (R-Oklahoma), a citizen
of the Chickasaw Nation, and
Rep. Markwayne Mullin
(R-Oklahoma), a citizen of the Cherokee Nation.
The ACA includes a permanent reauthorization of the Indian Health Care Improvement Act. If it's repealed, tribes would have to
ask Congress to renew the law, a process that took 10 years due to objections from Republicans.
