May 19 (UPI) -- The House is awaiting a ruling by the Congressional Budget Office on whether its healthcare bill conforms with Senate reconciliation procedures before they send it to the Senate, House Republicans said.
The House approved the American Health Care Act by a slim 217-213 margin on May 4, before the CBO could analyze last-minute amendments and determine how those amendments would financially impact the country. The AHCA would replace President Barack Obama's signature Affordable Care Act.
