Video: House votes to repeal health care law



>>> in congress, house of representatives , there's been another vote to repeal president obama 's health care law . kelly o'donnell, our correspondent on the hill covering it all for us. kelly, what's going on there?

>> well, brian, this was the 33rd time that the house voted to repeal or cut funding for the president's health care law . this is key. it was the first time since the supreme court upheld the law as constitutional but did say that the individual mandate, the requirement everyone buy insurance is a tax. that word tax gave new political fuel to house republicans who wanted to compel democrats to vote on this issue, to be on the record. will they support this new health care tax as defined by the court. this will play out in all of their campaigns. it's a big issue for the fall, but the practical effect brian is senate democrats it won't go anywhere there. it's about taking a stand and both parties did that today.
