Two House committees released long-awaited draft measures that House Speaker Paul Ryan and GOP leaders negotiated with the White House, and made expedited plans to take up the measures Wednesday. The proposal would scrap the underpinnings of Obamacare, including its mandate to buy insurance and many of its taxes, and establish a new refundable, age-based tax credit to help people buy insurance. Leaders aim to get a final measure to Trump’s desk by mid-April, which leaves little room for error. (House, 3/6)

The White House  praised the House Republicans’ plan to repeal and replace ObamaCare on Monday, but stopped short of fully endorsing the proposal. White House press secretary Sean Spicer said the legislation’s release “marks an important step toward restoring healthcare choices and affordability back to the American people.” (Fabian, 3/6)
