10 New GOP Senators Want to Repeal ObamaCare

In the debate over whether to repeal or reform ObamaCare, the pro-repeal caucus just added ten new members.

And they’re all in the U.S. Senate.

“Every newly elected GOP senator who won in last night’s election campaigned on repealing ObamaCare,” reports CNS News.

Here’s the list:

  • Cory Gardner of Colorado
  • David Perdue of Georgia
  • Joni Ernst of Iowa
  • Thom Tillis of North Carolina
  • Tom Cotton of Arkansas
  • James Lankford of Oklahoma
  • Steve Daines of Montana
  • Mike Rounds of South Dakota
  • Shelley Moore Capito of West Virginia
  • Ben Sasse of Nebraska

The election of these ten senators moves the chamber’s new GOP majority in a repeal-friendly direction, perhaps making it easier for Republicans – who extended their majority in the House of Representatives – to demand more concessions from a now isolated President Barack Obama.

Of course, just because a majority in Congress wants to repeal ObamaCare doesn’t mean its namesake in the White House will go along. It does mean, however, that conservatives in Congress have a deeper well of support to draw from over the next two years in trying to reduce and eliminate as much of ObamaCare as they can.
