President Donald Trump said he was “very supportive” of the Obamacare repeal bill unveiled by Senate Republicans on Thursday.

“I am very supportive of the Senate #HealthcareBill. Look forward to making it really special! Remember, ObamaCare is dead,” he tweeted Thursday night.

Earlier in the day, White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders didn’t offer a full White House endorsement of the plan. Pressed on whether the president would publicly support the bill, Sanders painted the bill as a work in progress, saying Trump “wants to bring the stakeholders to the table” and “have those conversations,” adding, “we’ll get back to you.”

Hours before Sanders’ remarks, when asked by reporters what he thought of the Senate draft, Trump said “it’s going to be very good.”
