colorado governor john hickenlooper was one of them and joins me now. governor, thank you so much. a bipartisan solution but that one stalled, do you have confidence that there is some middle ground that can be reached between these two parties? >> without question. i think as senator alexander or senator murray's committee was clearly making progress, five governors who testified a couple of weeks ago, three republicans and two democrats and the questions from both republicans and democrats to the governors were piercing. they were focused but not critical. everyone there trying to understand stability to the private market, to really focusing on what kind of reinsurance fund would really work so we don't have a small number of -- tilting cost of insurance for everyone way up. those solutions seem to have pretty bipartisan support. when senator mccain talked about coming back to regular order, what a great basic idea, right? we all work together. we all care about controlling costs and don't want to roll back coverage. yet cassidy -- the graham/cassidy bill does seem to be rolling

john hickenlooper and john kasich released a bipartisan plan to stabilize the individual insurance marketr hickenlooper yesterday and asked how those adverse spending cuts will impact the market. >> certainly it is not going to help. if we are getting rid of the mandates, one way is to have marketing dollars, get more young people to join. there are reasons young people have not been joining. part of it is the penalty. they feel they can get insurance when they need it, if they get sick. and when they get cured, they drop out. that makes it very hard because the people that remain in the insurance pool are the ones that have the worst conditions and cost the most money to the insurance company. of course, that drives premiums up. if we can get more people in and brought in that pool, and there are a variety of ways we propose to do that, that will attract more young people so they would not need as much advertising money. is thathe suggestion this is thrown down the drain and not having any impact they would like it to have. president trump has suggested he will let the whole situation wi

governor shot down buzz he was thinking about forming a unit ticket with the colorado governor john hickenlooper. some say in could include others such as: cuban telling the associated press that trump's base won't turn on him but if there is someone they can connect too they may turn away from him. the door is wide open, it's just a question who can pull it off. the new york times argues it maybe tougher than that writing this: >> i challenge to you have a little fun with this one. what do you think could happen here? >> i speak to a lot of grassroots republicans and conservative groups. i tell you, there maybe a thought of erosion of trump support but there isn't for grassroots republicans. the dysfunction of the government isn't blamed on the president. it's those not standing behind his a genre. i don't think anyone can going to walk in and challenge this president. he's popular. the blame goes everywhere but him for the most part. >> interesting a challenger doesn't even have to win to hurt the president. the three incumbent presidents who lost, ford, carter and hw bush were weakened becaus

[laughter] governor kasich: i was happy about that. look, here's the problem. it feels good up there i guess at that committee but the problem is republicans don't want to say, be connected anything that's connected to obamacare no matter what it is.

we spoke to john hickenlooper yesterday and asked how funding costs will impact the market. >> it willp. if we are trying to get rid of the mandate, one way to do that is a marketing dollars and to really get more young people to join. there are reasons why young people have not been joining and part is the penalty, they feel they can go in and get insurance when they need it, if they get sick. when they get cured, they do not -- they drop out, that makes it very hard because the people remaining in the insurance pool are the ones who have the worst conditions and cause the most money to the insurance companies. that drives premiums up. if we get more people in and broaden the pool, and there are a variety of ways to do that, that will attract more young people and we would not need as much advertising money. >> the suggestion is the advertising money is being thrown down the drain. not having in fact they would like. president trump has suggested he will let the whole situation with obamacare", do you see this as a symbolic gesture down the path? , he isink maybe it is demonstrating t

some of these governors have been working on bipartisan solutions of their own, like governor john hickenlooper of colorado. he has been working on a proposal to stabilize the health market with ohio governor john kasich, republican. they are hoping to get some more input on that. as chairman alexander said, these governors and state insurance commissioners are at the center of the problem. host: will there be more effort in the fall to repeal the health care law or fix the current problems? guest: republicans in both the house and senate have indicated they would like to move on and start working on tax reform. a lot of them have acknowledged privately that this is what they really want to work on. at this point, whatically and vote-wise, they can pass through both chambers may be a slimmed-down insurance stabilization markets. host: several items were not on the agenda until recently have come up. possible disaster relief for hurricane harvey, and plans to reauthorize the national flood insurance program. that is set to expire september 30. what is the status of some of these issues? how do t

meanwhile, governors john kasich of ohio and john hickenlooper of colorado are leading a bipartisan efforte health care system. >> it meets all the philosophy. if you want to keep obama care, keep it. if you want to change things and design something that fits your population and your state, you can. just within certain limits. >> defense secretary james mattis pushing back at the notion that he and president trump aren't on the same page when it comes to the posture to deal with north korea. on wednesday secretary mattis appeared to disagree with comments by the president that a diplomatic solution involving talking with pyongyang was no longer on the list of options. mattis said his remarks were in no way contradictory to the president's. >> we're want talking no north koreans right now. >> there are no contradictions. i agree with the president. we should not be talking right now to a nation that's firing missiles over the top of japan an ally. i was -- he said we're not talking to him. i agree 100%. >> all right. joining us now live from seoul, south korea, nbc news correspondent ron a

so look, john hickenlooper and i along with other republican, and democratic governors, we put together a program that gives the states great flexibility. you can keep obamacare if you want it, if you don't have to agree with that direction, but we have guardrails. there have to be guardrails. you can't hand somebody a blank check, particularly when it is not as much as the current program. we can fix programs, one last thing. when i became governor, we had a 9% increase in medicaid rates. now that rate is growing by 1.7 we have more people that are healthy. we have low uninsured rate. we can do these things if we use our brains and forget the silly politics. >> so you're with john mccain in wanting to see a better bill on the substance and better process and want it to be bipartisan? >> that's what hickenlooper and i resubmitted a plan. >> what do you want to see. >> i want to start with insurance. i want to stabilize the insurance market. give states the flexibility within certain parameters to design their own program, and if you want to stay with your program, you can do it. then i

there isn't anybody i know who epitomizes bipartisanship more than our governor, john hickenlooper, my old boss. i was chief of staff when he was mayor of the city and county of denver. some things i know about john is that he came to colorado as a geologist and he promptly lost his job during a downturn, and his insurance, by the way, his health insurance. that didn't stop him. he created the first microbrewery that exists between chicago and los angeles in the city and county of denver, became a very successful businessman, became mayor of denver. and one of the first things he did was go out and wrangle 34 mayors in the denver metro area, many of them republicans, to raise the sales tax to pay for what is now the newest light rail system in the country. it covers an area the size of the state of connecticut. when he became governor, he continued that bipartisan work, brought environmentalists and industry together to create the first methane regulations in the united states, and he has worked, as has been mentioned by the ranking member, with john kasich from ohio to create a bipart
