Senate Republicans offer counter-proposal on Obamacare subsidies

Senate Republicans will offer a vote on their own health care plan just weeks before Affordable Care Act subsidies expire, setting up votes on dueling Democratic and Republican proposals Thursday.

The Republican bill, sponsored by Sens. Mike Crapo (Idaho) and Bill Cassidy (Louisiana) would allow existing ACA subsidies to expire and replace them with a new two-year program in which the federal government would directly pay into health savings accounts paired with certain plans on the ACA marketplace.
