Mike Viqueira, a reporter from NBC News, asked some Republican members of Congress if they had read the bill that they were about to vote on to repeal the Affordable Care Act. Some said they had. Some walked on by. And then there was our representative, John Shimkus (R, Illinois-15):
“Good morning, Mr. Shimkus, have you had a chance to read this bill?”When I heard about it, I thought someone was kidding. But it’s no joke. It’s on tape.
“Uh, I just got back from baseball practice.”
There are no words. (It’s before 10 p.m.)
