Politico: “House Republicans worked late into the night Tuesday on last-minute changes to their Obamacare repeal bill, as President Donald Trump began rallying support to muscle the stalled legislation across the finish line… A new amendment being drafted Tuesday night would address concerns from key moderates about how the legislation treats individuals with pre-existing conditions.”
“Trump is now getting personally involved in trying to pass the bill. The president made at least a dozen phone calls seeking support for the bill Tuesday. And Capitol Hill and administration officials said he will host lawmakers — including Upton and Long — at the White House on Wednesday.”
Playbook: “For those still calling Trump a ‘dealmaker,’ despite the fact that he hasn’t cut one significant legislative deal as president, this will be a telling moment… This is a pretty clean test of Trump’s persuasion skills.”
