With Republican leadership charging ahead despite growing concerns about a hasty repeal of the Affordable Care Act, a group of GOP senators has introduced a measure intended to draw out the repeal process.

The amendment, introduced by Republican Sens. Bob Corker, Rob Portman, Susan Collins, Bill Cassidy and Lisa Murkowski, would extend the deadline for congressional committees to write an ACA repeal bill from Jan. 27 to March 3.

The Senate is expected to vote this week on a resolution that would set the stage for repealing key provisions of the law through budget reconciliation.

President-elect Donald Trump hasn’t officially indicated a position on a repeal timeline, but top Trump aide Reince Priebus and Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul have both indicated that he would support a simultaneous repeal and replacement, FierceHealthPayer has reported.
