US senate approves measure to repeal Obamacare
The US Senate on Thursday voted 51-48 in favour of a resolution to draft a legislation repealing President Barack Obama's healthcare program 'Obamacare'. This comes after President-elect Donald Trump said that the repeal and replacement of Obamacare should happen "essentially simultaneously". Notably, around 2 crore Americans who were previously uninsured gained health insurance through Obamacare.
