Tick Tock: Obama Rallies Dems as Sunday Vote On Health Care Bill Looms
It's do or die time this weekend - and not just for the NCAA teams.
A vote is expected Sunday on the health care bill, which has snowballed into the latest headline-dominating, talk-show-circuit monopolizing craze. Today, House Democratic leaders dropped a plan, called the "Deem And Pass" (aka "Demon Pass"), to approve the Senate version of the health care bill without taking a direct vote on in. The "Demon Pass" enraged Republicans and drew ire from protestors, who have circled the Capitol this week picketing and chanting angry slogans. The remaining hot-button issue on the bill appears to be (as always) limits on insurance coverage for abortions.
The Health Care Lawyer Blog will be on hiatus next week - however, stay tuned for extensive analysis on any passed legislation starting Monday, March 29.
