A plurality of Americans said they would prefer Republicans to leave the new healthcare law alone and not repeal any parts of it, a new poll found Tuesday.
Given the option to name the sections of the healthcare law they would most like to see the GOP repeal, 42 percent said they would leave the bill alone and repeal no parts, a new "60 Minutes"/Vanity Fair poll found.
But if there is one section voters would like to see stricken from the healthcare law, it seems to be the individual mandate — the requirement that all Americans buy health insurance, or face stiff penalties.
Thirty percent of Americans said they would like to see Republicans get rid of the individual mandate, by far the provision in the healthcare law that voters would most like to see removed, if they favor any kind of repeal at all.
President Barack Obama signed reform into law in March after months of battle in Congress. No Republicans voted for the final version of the legislation in the House and Senate. |
