Probably the biggest victory that the Republicans got besides winning control of the House, Senate, and electing a Pro-Life Conservative Republican President is the Senate passing a Healthcare Bill. It was important for the Senate to pass a healthcare bill that would not only Defund Planned Parenthood and focus on repealing and replacing Obamacare. It took Vice President Mike Pence's tie breaking vote 51-50 to help Defund Planned Parenthood. Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell tried to repeal and replace Obamacare and Defund Planned Parenthood back in 2015 when the Republicans all agreed on it but then President Obama vetoed the bill. Now that this bill was in writing, this healthcare bill being voted to proceed, will focus on how the Senate is going to repeal now and replace Obamacare in the future. President Trump will sign this bill into law.
