Higgins' official office announced a 'replacement law' for Obamacare and invited the public to review the first draft.

He advanced a concrete repeal-and-replace effort in office, but this was only an announcement of a draft, not repeal itself.

HealthCare.gov says the Affordable Care Act was enacted on March 23, 2010 and provides the full law text.

As of the research date, the ACA remains an enacted federal law, so Higgins' repeal promise was not fulfilled.

Assessments

never same_term A for effort

Higgins promised that Obamacare must be repealed. The evidence shows he supported and participated in serious repeal-and-replace efforts during his term, including the 2017 House-passed American Health Care Act and related replacement proposals. However, the repeal effort failed in the Senate and the Affordable Care Act remained in force, so the promised outcome was not delivered.
