3 GOP senators threaten to oppose health bill

WASHINGTON (AP) — Threats of opposition from three Republican senators are casting doubt on whether GOP leaders have enough support to move ahead on the Senate health care bill.

The Senate has to hold a procedural vote to move forward, most likely on Wednesday.

Sen. Susan Collins of Maine tweeted after the Congressional Budget Office analysis on Monday that the Senate bill won't fix the flaws in the current bill. She says she will vote no on the "motion to proceed."

Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin says he has "a hard time believing I'll have enough information for me to support a motion to proceed this week."

Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky says it's worse to "pass a bad bill than to pass no bill."

Republicans can't afford more than two defections.
