Meanwhile on Capitol Hill the other bit of headlining EC house Republicans set to vote on repealing the Health Care Reform lots.

Joining us from Washington is congressman Aaron shock of Illinois congressman thanks so much for joining us.

Morning glory get -- do it -- aren't they know the president full well will veto any congressional repeal obvious Affordable Care Act what message.

Are you trying to send to Americans about health care.

What we've learned a few things since the last vote in the house -- first of all we've learned that.

Despite the president's pledged it if you like your health care coverage you're going to be able to keep it.

After the Democrats passed this law we've been able to read it as Nancy Pelosi asked -- all to do.

And amazingly what we're finding is that it's bad bad and bad.

Hi -- not only will Americans not be able afford health insurance under this law the Congressional Budget Office came out two weeks ago and said.

Group's twenty million Americans will now lose their health insurance if this law stands because businesses are not going to be looked forward.

Adequate health care coverage under this law second.

We learned that the bill was not a bargain of 900 billion dollars as Nancy Pelosi said but Congressional Budget Office has now updated their figures and said -- Over the next ten years it's now gonna cost one point eight trillion dollars or for obamacare -- Congressman -- -- come in here I understand we're going with this but there's politics involved as well.

And is this largely a message from house Republicans saying look individual mandate eating is a tax.

An additional tax on this -- economy so when you guys implement Democrats' Senate Democrats Democrats across the board.

This Affordable Care Act and you realize to your point right now that it's likely gonna cost more than you're expecting -- right now.

Don't come back to house Republicans looking for more.

Exactly and -- my third point was going to be the Supreme Court did declared it was a huge tax increase in the president has said.

No tax increase -- households below 250 grand in fact 75%.

Of all the people that will be pain attacks in this bill are households of about a 120000.

In last fall a -- -- dictionaries thirty.

They're gonna carry the burden so to your point not someone argued that this is politics it's actually policies in its what were elected to do I can't be blamed for the Senate's inaction.

I'm just as the fact -- in the House of Representatives.

In the budget of.

The Senate's not gonna pat pat -- -- click -- I don't -- your congressmen saintly figure on the record saying you're looking to improve health care delivery.

Accessing costs and cost effective amendment does -- would again only up.

What second -- point because of course Democrats claim you don't have ideas a reality is that house Republicans put forward and the house voted on the Republicans -- -- health care care passed.

Tort reform -- you have to have for a full -- to drive down across -- staff schedules are the best consumers when it comes a dry.
