Axios reported on Monday that Republican staffers are not planning to publicly release the Senate bill to repeal and replace Obamacare once they complete it, but will instead send it straight to the Congressional Budget Office for a score.
Graham was not the only Republican senator who appeared to be in the dark about the major health care legislation.
"We know this is not the best way to do health care," says @LindseyGrahamSC. "But it's the way we're having to do it."
