It has been a while since the ACA was passed. Here is the timeline:

As far as the voting goes, it is true that no republicans voted for it in either the house or senate. By the way, my post was not argument for Obamacare. Rather it was pointing out the timelines of the ACA versus the tax bill. Really, both acts are examples of Congress messing things up to "help" the people. At least in my opinion. It may or may not have been better to take some time rather than just ram it home for the sake of appearing to get something done. After all, they have a government shutdown to avoid.
