The two new measures released by House Republicans on Monday would create a new tax credit system to incentivize individuals to purchase insurance.

Paul has dubbed the GOP’s plan “ObamaCare Lite,” arguing in a Fox News op-ed on Monday that repeal and replace should be two separate processes.

"We own repeal. We ran on it. It is our idea. We have to pass it cleanly, now,” Paul wrote in the joint op-ed with Rep. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.), who leads the far-right House Freedom Caucus.

“Then we owe the American people a real-old fashioned period of allowing all ideas to be debated and voted on to produce the best product possible.”
