Rand Paul praises Roy Moore for opposing ObamaCare repeal effort
BY JORDAIN CARNEY - 09/22/17 10:37 AM EDT
Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) is praising Roy Moore — the Alabama GOP primary opponent to Sen. Luther Strange (R-Ala.) — for his opposition to the latest GOP ObamaCare repeal bill.
"Good to see [he] gets it. He won't vote for fake repeal!" Paul said on Twitter on Friday.

Asked if he would vote for the healthcare bill, spearheaded by GOP Sens. Lindsey Graham (S.C.) and Bill Cassidy (La.), a campaign spokesman for Moore told MSNBC "if Graham/Cassidy is anything less than a full repeal, Judge Moore will not vote for it.”
The Hill confirmed Moore's stance with his campaign, but Moore’s spokeswoman did not respond to a request to elaborate as to whether Moore believes Graham-Cassidy qualifies as a “full repeal.”
