Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price urged Republican senators to pass any healthcare bill that can get 50 votes in the upper chamber.
"What we need to do in the Senate is figure out what the lowest common denominator is, what gets us to 50 votes, so we can move forward on healthcare legislation," Price said on CNBC's "Squawk Box" Wednesday morning.
"Legislation is one step at a time. And so we'll see what the next step is and move on from there." Over the next few days, the Senate will debate and vote on dozens of amendments.
A vote on an amendment that would repeal much of ObamaCare is expected Wednesday, but will likely fail.
Leaders hope that after voting on dozens of amendments, they'll end up with a "skinny" repeal of ObamaCare that would eliminate the law's individual and employer mandates and the medical device tax.

Eff you!
Anything will do. After all, it's only a sixth of the U.S. economy. Just get a gloat-able "win" to Trump's desk. He won't care what's in it. Otherwise, "deliberative" children, you won't get to go home and play.
your a fucking disgrace, a fucking "skinny" fucking version, people are still going to die, that is not "skinny" asshole
I guess when your fucking megalomaniac was in front of kids and adults at the Jamboree, you were really intimidated by his remarks, you really are spineless
