The GOP doesn't have a problem with the bill (not one has dared to say it's bad), they are refusing to let it come to the floor of the Senate for a vote, because the GOP fears that to pass it would be an obvious big plus in the Dems and Obama's political column.

The current Senate GOP are cutting off helping pay the medical care of these heros to politically spite a President and opposition political party they don't like.

Shows exactly where the Senate GOP puts their priorities - and it happens to be exactly where Mitch McConnell has said it is, publicly - for the GOP it's political games first, helping the country a distant second. If ever.
