Mr. Cassidy has teamed up with Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., and Sen. Dean Heller, R-Nev., to draft a bill that would give states block grant funding for healthcare. Because it has not yet been scored by the Congressional Budget Office, the bill requires 60 votes to pass.
“There are many ideas in Graham-Cassidy-Heller and the Patient Freedom Act that can be next steps,” said Mr. Cassidy. “I will continue to discuss these ideas with the administration, governors and folks back home, because the American people need relief.”
