'No such promise': Johnson blasts Dem accusations he vowed to end ObamaCare as 'dishonest'

EXCLUSIVE: Former President Trump and House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., are not promising to repeal the Affordable Care Act (ACA) as part of the Republicans' policy plan for 2025, the House GOP leader suggested to Fox News Digital.

"Despite the dishonest characterizations from the Harris campaign, the audio and transcript make clear that I offered no such promise to end ObamaCare, and in fact acknowledged that the policy is 'deeply ingrained' in our health care system," Johnson told Fox News Digital.

"Still, House Republicans will always seek to reduce the costs and improve the quality and availability of health care for all Americans. Anyone who has been a patient or known a loved one who has struggled with health issues understands why this is so important."

It comes amid a barrage of accusations from Democrats that Republicans want to end the ACA, popularly known as ObamaCare.

"This is not President Trump's policy position," Trump national press secretary Karoline Leavitt told Fox News Digital.

"As President Trump has said, he will make our health care system better by increasing transparency, promoting choice and competition, and expanding access to new affordable health care and insurance options."
