Collins' ACA bill may be collapsing

The Affordable Care Act stabilization measures that Maine Sen. Susan Collins sought in return for her vote for the Republican tax reform bill appear to be in danger of collapsing. Democrats and conservative Republicans have failed to come to a consensus that can pass Congress.

Collins and several fellow moderate Republicans tried to rally support for the bill — which would be attached to must-pass spending legislation expected to go before Congress this week — in a news conference in Washington on Wednesday.

The Hill, a Washington newspaper, and other national media outlets reported this week that it was unlikely the ACA stabilization efforts would be included in the House version of the omnibus spending bill. The House and Senate must agree on an identical bill for it to be approved and go to President Donald Trump for his signature.
