grandpa, mike leigh has said he is unhappy. susan collins.hey have to get the senator's two yes and they will yield a lot more power because each of their votes is proved in the house. each lawmaker voice is not as valuable. you will have to see potentially changes being made in the senate for this bill to survive in the chamber. trade to what i'm curious about is the changes made in the house or senate. you don't want to be the lawmaker who sees obamacare stay the way it is. am i right? even if your member of the house freedom caucus or a senator who has conservative values and you don't want to go back and say you didn't get what she wanted. >> that's the exact argument the president of paul ryan are making. and it was obamacare. paul ryan has presented. tom cotton has presented its walk the plank. the conservative house members if you vote in favor of this bill, this boat will stick with you because it will fail in the senate and you will walk around trying to need to constituents why you voted for something called obamacare like, obamacar

mike leigh, they are opposed to the fact that this band they add entitlement and his conservatives theyo not like it. the president having a whole group of conservatives that may be rebellion over the white house even bowling last night, hoping to get this thing through. the president is going to have a lot of capital to make sure this gets through. if it passes ways and means committee will hopefully get to a full floor vote in the house and had to the senate. republicans hopeful the president will sign it before easter. nicole: kris jenkins to the house and senate it goes. thanks, chris. lauren: 9-1-1 emergency system down for customers last night. at least 14 states plus washington d.c. were not able to call 9-1-1 for a few hours. officials use social media for five hours to one people across the nation about the disruption. at&t said at 10:30 last night they had the problem fixed but did not say what caused the problem with the number of customers affect it. lauren: sports, rough night for the golden state warriors as they go down to the boston celtics. a debut for quarterback tim t

and saves no good, members of your own caucus, your own republican study committee, and senator mike leighhe kind of backroom dealing week criticised democrats for. how are you ever going to get this past? keep in mind our whole goal was to produce something more accessible, more affordable and is patient centred. i'm really happy with the plan we have, are there parts of it i would like to see go further? sure, that's a lwa ys like to see go further? sure, that's always going to be the place but overall, it offers the opportunity to have affordable and accessible patient centred health care. you can't be thrilled with the opposition to it from within your own party. we haven't even got to democrats yet. we never expected to have cooperation from the democrat a nyway have cooperation from the democrat anyway so that's beside the point but, yeah, there are those in our party who are concerned and we are going to mark this bill up to committee and see if there are things we can improve upon and, if not, we will put forward the best bill we can for the american people. we've got to do somethi

rand paul, mike leigh who say the bill is too generous and susan collins who argues it is too harsh and susan collins from maine joins me now. welcome back to the show. >> thank you. >> you were very tough on the house bill. you were unambiguous when it came to your vote. very simply, what would it take to get you from no to yes? >> we have to deal with three issues. the first is coverage. under the house bill 14 million americans would lose coverage next year. that rises to 24 million over the next decade. second, we have to do something about the fact that the house bill disproportionately affects older, rural americans. the congressional budget office has estimated that a 64-year-old who is earning $26,500 a year would see an increase in his or her cuts from $1700 to $14,600. that is unaffordable, and third, we have to do something about the medicaid changes which ship billions of cuts to the states and to other people who are insured. >> do you believe health care is a right? if so, it is a right that the government is responsible for fulfilling? >> i believe that as the practical m

a group of conservatives in the senate-- namely, rand paul of kentucky, ted cruz of texas, and mike leighutah-- who are-- could be a force on this, saying it is not conservative enough. we're going to see this really interesting test of conservatism and the conservative conservatit bedeviled past leaders in congress and donald trump, and who is going to win out this fight. and i talked to rand paul today, he said what is emerging from the house he will not vote for. >> sreenivasan: >> woodruff:s can ball, to what extent are they prepared for that kind of push-back from people in their own party. >> i think they are prepared. there's been push-back for some time. there is not only opposition from conservatives on capitol hill. there is division among the governors on what to do with medicaid. if you have a state that expanded medicaid you have one view, and if you didn't, you have another view. there are divisions. i think the administration today feels that as a result of the speech, people who have been reticent to support him or openly hostile to what is taking shape in the house might

mike and leigh standing by. this is something that president obama said the day that he signed the clean power plant. here it is. >> i am convinced that no challenge poses a greater threat to our future and future generations than a changing climate. >> it would seem as if this president, this administration, doesn't believe that to be true. >> yes. and this shows a pitfall of democracy. on the one hand donald trump got elected promising essentially to do this and he should be allowed to implement his agenda. on the other hand the people hurt by a rule like this, all of us, it's futuristic, it's defuse. the people who perceive these new trump administration dictates to be helping them, the coal miners, they feel it's so acutely, they'll vote for it. they're so motivated by it. so the benefits of trying to save the environment, maybe they help all of us in the future in 100 years, the costs of it or what the coal miners perceive as the cost, that drives them. >> at least, i have yet to hear from a reasonably inte

leigh, i know everyone is freaking outs about this. let's go back just a little bit. how did osweiler get the texans contract in the first place? i mean, it seems mikehree years, 45 million for an untested formerly backup quarterback. is there that little quarterback talent in the league? are these guys -- you know, listen, they're better than i am, i'm not knocking them, but you understand my point. >> so i've represented more than 100 quarterbacks, and three of them are in the hall of fame. the game has changed to become a quarterback centric game. without a franchise quarterback a team has very little chance of getting to and through the playoffs and through the super bowl. you need that quarterback to win in contemporary football. there are a huge group, as many as 1/4 of the league that don't have that player. so what happens is that draftees get pushed up in the draft and players who have a shot at being franchise quarterbacks are now being given amazing deals. and in free agency, remember, it's competitive bidding. so you see b players or b plus players get a plus contracts because they're all that are available. so, yes, i can give you seven
