GOP hopeful Scott Walker offers health plan with tax credits

Governor Scott Walker unveiled his plan for replacing the Affordable Care Act early Tuesday morning, ahead of his first major policy speech in Minneapolis. “I said you need to enforce the law, which to me, is focusing on E-Verify”.

If discussing immigration reform was not part of Walker’s message Monday, however, a confrontation with protesters played right into the overarching theme he has stressed in his campaign of having uncompromisingly taken on unions in Wisconsin and won.
