kevin brady. thanks for joining us. where do republican goes from here? mr. brady: here's the good news. while there aren't the votes for this bill yet, and no one is walking away from the table. we hear from our conservative members, our moderate members. certainly we hear that from the white house. our republican leadership as well in the house. this is incredibly important for us to deliver our promise on repealing obamacare and beginning to replace it. look, i acknowledge this is tough stuff. you're going to hit bumps in the road from time to time. that's not unusual. so we're just going to continue until we get this done. reporter: there was a report saying the white house says this vote will take place on friday. could you confirm that? mr. brady: we're going to meet tonight. timing has not yet been announced by the majority leader, kevin mccarthy. republicans will meet tonight at 7:00. talk through next steps, where we're at. sort of what are the solutions that bring us together for what i say is the last 5% of this bill. there's so much common ground that we're based off of. but

mr. obama a "bad or sick guy!" kevin lewis, a spokesman for former president obama, said in a statement: "a cardinal rule of the obama administration was that no white house official ever interfered with any independent investigation led by the department of justice. as part of that practice, neither president obama nor any white house official ever ordered surveillance on any u.s. citizen. any suggestion otherwise is simply false." ben rhodes, a former top national security advisor to president obama, flatly denied mr. trump's charges, tweeting:" no president can order a wiretap. those restrictions were put in place to protect citizens from people like you." house democratic leader nancy pelosi, also in a tweet, said in part: "the deflector-in-chief is at it again." small groups of supporters of president donald trump held rallies across the nation today from palm beach, florida, near president trump's estate, to a state park near philadelphia. more than a hundred people gathered to show support at the washington monume

kevin -- [inaudible] >> yes, mr. president. [inaudible] what exactly, sir, do you think -- [inaudible] what areas of common ground do you think -- [inaudible] and then for chancellor merkel, what do you view as -- [inaudible] >> well, kevin, i think we have a very unified republican party. after all, we have the presidency, we have the house, we have the senate. and we're getting along very well, i will tell you. and if you were at the meeting that i just attended where we took 12 nos or semi-nos -- no yess -- and within a short period of time, everybody was very much onboard. and a commitment to vote yes. i think we have a very unified party. i think actually more unified than even the election. you see when they talk about me, i seem to be very popular at least this week within the party. because we have our highest numbers, the highest numbers that i've ever had in the party. so i think there's a great unification. health care's a very, very difficult subject, it's a very complex subject, and it's a subject that, you know, go

. >> neil: probably what we'll hear from my next guest, kevin brady. mr. chairman, very good to have you. >> thanks for having me. >> neil: so you'd know, how do we stand on the tax thing. >> this is -- we fought hard for obamacare repeal. we did fall short. look, i'm not discouraged. we've been running a parallel track on tax reform. we're going full steam ahead on this and work with the administration to get this done. this made a big challenge more challenging, but it's not insurmountable. we're going to pivot to this and roll forward. >> neil: you know, how would you roll forward here? there seems to be, is it safe to say, broader agreement among members in your party, the moderate and the conservatives for broad-based tax reform? is that safe to say, that it would be an easier lit than the healthcare thing? >> the tax code is complex. so are the special interests that come with it. yes, republicans are really comfortable with tax reform. that is the number 1 priority for all of us. so yeah, i think there's a strong momentum for tax reform. the key is,

mr. trump's agenda. house ways and means chairman kevin brady of texas said in a statement: "full speed ahead with president trump on the first pro-growth tax reform in a generation." joining us now to discuss the implications for the trump administration as it tries to move forward is newshour weekend special correspondent jeff greenfield. so, it was not a good day. paul ryan agreed about that and president trump sort of did. who was hurt worse? >> first of all, any time the trump-friendly "drudge report" puts the hindenburg explosion on the front page, it's kind of a clue things didn't go well. i think the fallout will hit the congress and the speaker. a lot of what he did was mystifying. a lot of the policy in the health care repeal was in direct contradiction of what the president said in terms of insurance for everybody. and then the end lts and unsuccessful attempt to feed the freedom caucus, the most conservative hard-right group in the congress, not only didn't work, but then alienated two dozen moderates. whether this means that the people who have been suspicious of ryan, the breitbart folks, are

: yesterday, oregon councilman greg walden in kevin brady from texas, the two chairmen responsible for the bill discussed some of the details of the bill. mr. walden: good morning. yesterday, the house energy and commerce committee and the house ways and means committee released the american health care act. it's the budget reconciliation legislation as part of the house republicans' efforts to repeal and replace obamacare. after years of obamacare's broken promises, we are proud to put forward a plan that represents a better way for patients and for american families. and this morning, health and human services secretary tom price sent us a letter on behalf of the trump administration in support of our legislation. that's a first step on the path to fulfilling our promises to the american people. we welcome president trump and secretary price's support. we will continue to work with them to get this bill passed into law. let me be clear. our plan is the first step. under our plan, we are moving forward in a positive direction to rescue the individual insurance market and to give flexibility to our states. we are protecting those patients

kevin brady. he is the chairman of the powerful house ways and means committee, and mr. chairman, it is great to have you with us. >> lou, always good to visit a fellow texan. thank you. lou: amen, brother. these are tough times, however, for even texans because we're looking at a gop irrespective of what anyone is claiming here. right now the gop, conservatives are very concerned about a number of issues. amongst them, tax credits, they're concerned about taxes on the cadillac plan. they're concerned about medicaid extension, its cost and the reasons and why fors that the republican leadership decided to preserve it. so let's start with those three principal objectives and critiques if i may, from the conservatives and your response. >> first, let me just make -- this is not conservative opposition. these are conservative colleagues. they have great ideas. in fact we're working with them, i've been working all day long as we have almost every day, trying to make sure we get as much as we can in this repeal and replace because we have two principles altogether. not just

kevin: yes, and i think mr. and leading what i think other folks throughout the washington thing tank conservative -- washington think tank in certain institutions are also saying. then candidate trump was able to bring -- was able to win over the grassroots conservative organizations like cato and heritage. these institutions themselves have always been apprehensive about then candidate trump and now president trump and whether or not he is conservative enough. this is his first political referee. everyone is waiting for the congressional budget office to score this thing. francine: i am looking at some of the stories that we are writing, whether president trump can bring jobs back. he has vowed to bring jobs back -- where are the industries that he has felt to bring jobs back, and which ones will not be enough? kevin: this is the first policy hey he has to get to if wants to get to tax reform and other policy areas. coalregards to call, -- to , the strategists i talk with note that coworkers were a large -- th
