House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) confirmed Thursday night that GOP leadership will not bring a revised ObamaCare repeal bill to the floor this week.

White House officials have been pushing for a vote by President Trump's 100th day in office on Saturday, but it was clear Thursday night that the 216 GOP votes needed to pass the healthcare bill had not materialized.

"We are not voting on healthcare tomorrow or Saturday," McCarthy told reporters after a nearly
two-hour meeting in Speaker Paul Ryan's (R-WI) office in the capital.
