Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives will begin drafting their own health-care measure today, now that the chamber has voted to repeal the overhaul President Barack Obama pushed into law last year.
The House will take up a resolution formally authorizing four committees to begin work on the legislation. Two have announced investigations into the law, one on its effect on jobs and a second on how the administration has granted waivers for some companies to avoid new rules.
