It is the 37th time the House has voted to repeal all or part of the law. Almost all of those efforts died in the lower chamber, but Republicans have undone small parts of the legislation. Earlier in the day, the vote sparked a Twitter war between the White House and House Republicans, with the Obama administration arguing that health-care reform is the law and the GOP vowing to repeal it.

The House of Representatives will take its 37th vote to repeal the Affordable Care Act — or it might be the 38th. With more than three dozen votes cast, it's difficult to keep track.

It's easy to write off these votes as pure political spectacle with no substantial meeting. Members of Congress can tell their constituents that they voted to repeal Obamacare and move on to other issues.

Is that because of a Democratic Senate and White House? Absolutely. Is it because the law is popular? No, because it's not.

Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) said Tuesday that the immigration reform bill proposed by the Senate's Gang of Eight is "far worse" than President Obama's health care bill.

"If somehow there was an offer that you're going to get one or the other I would take Obamacare before I'd ever accept this amnesty plan," King said at a press conference with other conservative House Republicans opposed to the bill. "This is far worse."

“Obamacare is fully implemented January 1st, even though the regulations haven’t been written yet. And Brian, we’ve got 33,000 pages of regulations that they’ve already written. If we stacked it up here, it would be seven feet tall.”

* Obama nominees moved forward. One was confirmed.

* We got a new IRS commissioner.

* And lost another IRS official.

Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius has gone, hat in hand, to health industry officials, asking them to make large financial donations to help with the effort to implement President Obama's landmark health-care law, two people familiar with the outreach said.

Her unusual fundraising push comes after Congress repeatedly rejected the Obama administration's requests for additional funds to set up the Affordable Care Act, leaving HHS to implement the president's signature legislative accomplishment on what officials have described as a shoestring budget.

Back when it was passed just over three years ago, the Affordable Care Act included a provision to add calorie information to all chain restaurant menus.

Fast forward to 2013, and that requirement still has not gone into effect. While some restaurants took preemptive action and have posted calorie information on their menus, there's no final regulation that requires such information to be provided. What gives?

Scandal, not legislation, could dominate Congress this week as lawmakers in both parties continue to respond to revelations that the Internal Revenue Service gave extra scrutiny to conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status and continue to accuse the opposing party of playing politics with the attack at a U.S. diplomatic outpost in Benghazi, Libya.
