On Wednesday, the Senate Health, Education, Labor & Pensions Committee will consider President-elect Trump’s nominee to lead the Department of Health and Human Services: Rep. Tom Price, R-Ga. The hearing will no doubt be another showdown in the war over Obamacare’s fate.

Price, an orthopedic doctor in Atlanta before he became a politician, is more than equipped to lead HHS and implement the Republican plan to replace Obamacare. He’s had a replacement plan of his own ready for two years. Soon, significant elements of his “Empowering Patients First Act” are likely to become law.
