Washington – Vice President Mike Pence has told a group at a small business in West Virginia that “we will end the Obamacare nightmare and give the American people the world-class health care that they deserve.”

Pence’s message on Saturday comes after the GOP effort to repeal Barack Obama’s health care law failed to gather enough Republican support to come to a vote in the House.

Top congressional Republicans mostly concede the measure’s demise means it’s time to move onto other issues. Trump himself says “it won’t be in the very distant future” before he tries again to repeal and replace the health care law.

On Saturday in the West Virginia community of Scott Depot, Pence said Congress just wasn’t ready and that it’s “back to the drawing board.”
