Give conservatives more input on health care bill

This time around, Washington, D.C. health care legislation is for the Republican Party to repeal and replace Obamacare as promised in previous elections. Enact a new family-based health care policy.

President Donald Trump should insist that GOP leaders allow Capitol Hill conservative Republicans to have political input on a new plan. The presentation would be the equivalent of a national Republican primary election.

A national TV prime time debate, with Sen. Ted Cruz’s plan versus the Senate and House versions of our Moderate Capitol Hill GOP leaders, should be held. Americans, and specifically conservative Republicans, deserve to be allowed to see these plans.

Moderate Capitol Hill Republican Party leaders should not refuse Cruz’s ‘Repeal and Replace’ of Obamacare. Why should a few leaders of the Capitol Hill GOP disallow conservative GOP leaders to participate in legislation of ‘Repeal and Replace’ of Obamacare as promised to we, the people? This new legislation may represent a shining star for the GOP for generations to come.

A few Capitol Hill GOP Moderate leaders should not be making all decisions, behind closed doors, as to who may participate, and what will be allowed on the floor of the Senate and House.
