CQ Roll Call has confirmed the following members as “no” votes on the American Health Care Act, absent further changes. If this tally stands on the floor, the bill will fail.

Late Wednesday, members of the House Freedom Caucus suggested negotiations with the White House were under way to make changes to the bill that would appease its members. No details of any deal were discussed by members leaving a meeting.

House Speaker Paul D. Ryan was also meeting Wednesday night with 25 members of the Tuesday Group to discuss the health care bill. 

Here are the members currently on record as being opposed:

  1. Justin Amash, R-Mich. (Freedom & Liberty caucuses)
