House GOP abruptly pulls troubled health care bill
WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican leaders have abruptly pulled their troubled health care overhaul bill off the House floor, short of votes.
House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., withdrew the legislation after Trump called him and asked him to halt debate without a vote, according to Ryan spokeswoman AshLee Strong.
Just a day earlier, Trump had demanded a House vote and said if the measure lost, he would move on to other issues.
