President Donald Trump celebrated his first big legislative victory by inviting Republican lawmakers to the White House after the House of Representatives voted to replace Obamacare, bringing the GOP a key step closer to its seven-year goal of dumping the healthcare law.

The House voted 217-213 to pass a Republican bill that would erase large portions of the signature healthcare reforms that Barack Obama passed in 2010. While the bill faces an uncertain future in the Senate, Thursday’s outcome was a big win for Mr Trump, whose first 100 days in office had ended without notable legislative achievements.

“Its going to be an unbelievable victory?.?.?.?when we get it through the Senate,” Mr Trump said in the Rose Garden, where he was flanked by dozens of congressmen “This has really brought the Republican Party together.”
