Tea Party group to GOP: Don't 'reward collaborators' on healthcare law

The Hill reports:

Republicans should refuse to "reward collaborators" by not helping industry groups that supported the healthcare law unless they support its full repeal, the non-profit FreedomWorks told House leaders in a confidential memo sent Monday.

"We think the Republicans would be foolish to go along with their requests for changes absent their support for repeal," said memo co-author Dean Clancy, who was the top healthcare policy official at the Office of Management and Budget under President George W. Bush. "If you repeal it all, then you repeal its warts and all. Our advice is don't make a bad bill better."
