Senate Republicans announced that a repeal of the Affordable Care Act's individual healthcare mandate will be included in their tax reform bill,a slouch that is not sitting well with Senators from across the aisle. "This tax bill is now officially a healthcare bill," said Ranking Member of the Senate Finance Committee, or Democratic Senator Ron Wyden of Oregon.
