UnfulfilledHealthcareFirst Presidential Campaign (2015-2016)
Repeal and replace Obamacare
The original promise
2016 pledge to repeal the Affordable Care Act and replace it with something better.
Promised June 16, 2015 · Efforts to repeal the Affordable Care Act
Why this status
Repeal efforts failed in the Senate in 2017. The individual mandate penalty was zeroed out in the 2017 tax law, but the ACA remains in force and no replacement was enacted.
