Health Care Change Faces More Challenges
Published Tuesday, November 24, 2009 at 05:00 AM
Senator Nelson says, - I don't want a big-government, Washington-run operation that undermines the private insurance that 200 million Americans now have. Lieberman says - I don't want to fix the problems in our health-care system in a way that creates more of an economic crisis. Senators Landrieu and Lincoln remain unhappy over a public option with a state opt-out clause.
Senate Minority Leader Reid says the Senate will begin deliberations on the 848-billion dollar bill next Monday, November 30th, and will consider amendments through most of December. Senators are eager to vote on health care before Christmas and complete negotiations with the House no later than the end of January, so they can turn their attention to legislation aimed at creating jobs and getting reelected.
