Senate Republicans failed to pass legislation to repeal and replace the Affordable Care at the end of July. After voting to proceed with debate on the American Health Care Act, which was passed by the House in May, the Senate introduced and voted against several replacement amendments and bills, including a new version of the Better Care Reconciliation Act, with amendments by Senators Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Rob Portman (R-OH), and the Obamacare Repeal Reconciliation Act.
