On the same day that the House of Representatives canceled its vote on Ryancare, Alabama Rep. Mo Brooks filed a simple one-line bill to repeal Obama\u2019s signature health care law.<\/h2>\n

The Huntsville Republican titled the bill \u2018Obamacare Repeal Act.\u201d It\u00a0is short and to the point, AI.com reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cEffective as of Dec. 31, 2017, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is repealed, and the provisions of law amended or repealed by such Act are restored or revived as if such Act had not been enacted,\u201d the bill reads.<\/p>\n

Brooks, a member of the House Freedom Caucus, told constituents last week that he was a \u201cno\u201d vote<\/a> on the Obamacare repeal\/replace bill offered by Republican Speaker of the House Paul Ryan.<\/p>\n

Also last week, in an interview<\/a> with SiriusXM host Alex Marlow, Brooks called the Speaker\u2019s bill \u201ca horrible replacement bill.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rep. Brooks went on to call the bill \u201cthe largest Republican welfare program in the history of the Republican Party.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIf the American people want to repeal Obamacare, this is their last, best chance during the 115th Congress,\u201d Brooks said.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt a minimum, the discharge petition will, like the sun burning away the fog, show American voters who really want to repeal Obamacare and who merely act that way during election time,\u201d the 5th District Congressman concluded.<\/p>\n
