House to vote next week to block health funds: Cantor
(Reuters) - The House of Representatives will vote to block funding for President Barack Obama's signature healthcare overhaul when it takes up a budget plan it will consider next week, House Republican Leader Eric Cantor said on Tuesday.

"I expect to see one way or other the product coming out of the House to speak to that and to preclude any funding to be used for that," Cantor said at a news conference, referring to an effort to block implementation of the health-care law.

2. What do they plan to replace it with?

That's a rhetorical question BTW because I know that they don't have one.
Republicans, as a rule, are only good at taking away things that help people and giving it to people who don't need it (their own form of "redistribution"). :puke:
