Senate Republicans Press For John McCain’s Return In Time For Tomorrow’s Obamacare Repeal Vote

Politico reports:

Senate Republicans are still hoping John McCain makes it to Tuesday’s crucial Obamacare repeal vote. The absence of the Arizona senator, who was diagnosed with brain cancer last week, has made getting 50 votes to start debate on the bill exceedingly difficult. GOP leaders are hoping he can surprise everyone and return Tuesday.

“They were trying to get approval [from his doctors] for his travel arrangements. I’ve personally volunteered to rent an RV,” said Senate Majority Whip John Cornyn of Texas. “But we haven’t heard anything.” “I understand it is a possibility,” said GOP Sen. Roger Wicker of Mississippi.
