A plan that would enable members of the U.S. House of Representatives to repeal Obamacare – whether health care takeover advocate House Speaker Nancy Pelosi wants it or not – is continuing to gain momentum.
In just the last few days, another 17 names have been added to the discharge petition sponsored by U.S. Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa.
Share your thoughts about the Obamacare nationalization of health-care decision-making.
With a total of 150 names now, King told WND the effort is moving forward as quickly as he could expect.
The newest signatories are:
1. Frank A. LoBiondo, New Jersey
2. Sam Johnson, Texas
3. Paul Ryan, Wisconsin
4. John L. Mica, Florida
5. Michael R. Turner, Ohio
6. Aaron Schock, Illinois
7. Cliff Stearns, Florida
8. Devin Nunes, California
9. David Dreier, California
10. Christopher John Lee, New York
11. Kevin McCarthy, California
12. Bill Shuster, Pennsylvania
13. Leonard Lance, New Jersey
14. Howard P. "`Buck"' McKeon, California
15. Ander Crenshaw, Florida
16. Elton Gallegly, California
17. Rodney P. Frelinghuysen, New Jersey
King told WND today the entire GOP leadership team in the House is on board, as well as the full delegations from California and Texas. He's working on obtaining the last few GOP signatures before turning his attention to the Democrats.

Doesn’t matter. Obama and Dems have destroyed the country and there is no going back.
Totalitarianism and corruption. The NEW USA!
How many who voted for Obamacare are on the list? Most likely this is nothing more than an election year stunt.
Put your tail between your legs and get out of the way some of us are not done fighting
Sounds good to me!
Why would you say something dumb like that?
Things can be reversed.
This is possibly true. However, if we are going down, we damn sure must bring them down first.
Down in the mouth, throw in the towel attitude is not conservative - so you won’t have any converts to your mindset here.
Thanks for saving me the trouble of having to post that. If you hadn't, I would have.
You are correct! We The People have had enough!
Number 5 is my guy! Way to go, Mike Turner!!!
I listenened to him at a TEA party rally in Omaha.
Very impressed after I did some research on him also!
Ck this guy out!
3 from FL yay!
Now I’m trying to decide on Bill McCollum or Rick Scott for gov.....
Like Rick Scott wants to sell the state airplane (sound familiar).
McCollum says Scott’s company defrauded medicare. McCollum was in the Navy for 30 yrs. too.
Decisions.
Democrats will be urged by pelosi and Reid to jump on this bandwagon so they will have political cover during the election cycle... but it will never happen... and the dems that sign on know this.
DON’T GIVE THEM AN OUT!!!!
If they voted for it, DON’T LET THEM RUN AS AN OPPONENT TO IT!
The bill is now law, this discharge petition is meaningless political theater.
I'm sure you'll make the right one!
Someone please explain how this accomplishes anything? Isn’t the Obamacare nightmare law? How can a house petition change anything?

Exactly. Are they going to get the Senate on board.
We the people will stop this unconstitutional act for those who could care less and think the constitution is just a slang word for taking a walk.
