The quest continues!
Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) continued his two-day journey to get a glimpse at or a copy of the House GOP’s Obamacare repeal bill Friday, that was supposedly kept under lock and key in a secure basement a day earlier.
Paul posted a tweet-storm about his adventures with a copy machine (named @randpaulcopier, complete with its own Twitter account) around D.C. to try and get a copy of the bill.

They found mock signs.
This is harder than it should be. But wait. I think someone left us a hint! pic.twitter.com/dxx27kjxPM

Passed people planting trees.
They went outside and thought maybe this guy was helping House leaders hide it. But nope. pic.twitter.com/A06RoOG0pC

And even went to the Supreme Court.
Maybe it’s over there with the Justices for safe keeping? pic.twitter.com/CXEWPW9BPo

Paul also pointed out a Politico report that apparently had more info than he did about what was contained in the bill. He tweeted at the reporter Paul Demko and asked if he could get a copy of the bill.
Oh look. @politico has more details on the House Obamacare Lite plan. Hey @pauldemko can I get a copy?

Paul had spent much of the day on Thursday attempting to get a copy of the bill and was reportedly turned away from the room where it was kept.
