President Barack Obama vetoed the bill, which is intended to repeal key provisions of the current health care reform of the current administration, known as Obamacare, and also to deprive the Planned Parenthood Foundation of federal funding.

Thus, the bill will return to Congress, the majority of which belongs to the Republican opposition. As Forum previously reported, December 3 Senate voted for the adoption of this bill, after which it was approved by the US House of Representatives.

Immediately after the White House’s announcement of Obama’s decision to veto House Speaker Paul Ryan, he expressed the hope that the bill would be passed next year if the Republican candidate wins the upcoming presidential election.

At the moment, the Republicans do not have enough votes to overcome the presidential veto (two-thirds of the votes in both houses of Congress). Obama’s decision, which was the author of most health care reforms, was expected.

Barack Obama lamented that the proposed bill could hit millions of Americans.
