THE PROGRESSIVE REVIEW - November 23, 2009
Senate Democrats Introduce $849 Billion Health Care
Reform Bill
by: Brad Knickerbocker
The Christian Science Monitor
Majority Leader Harry Reid unveiled the Senate's health
care reform bill Wednesday. Now Reid must cobble together
60 senators to avoid a Republican filibuster.
Though the congressional debate and legislative sausage-
making are far from over, the Senate took a major step
Wednesday in putting forth a $849 billion healthcare
reform bill.

The bill, launched by Senate majority leader Harry Reid ?
and vigorously opposed by Republicans ? aims to provide
health insurance for 94 percent of all Americans, includ-
ing 31 million people now uninsured.
The measure reportedly would require most Americans to
carry health insurance, require large companies to provide
coverage for their employees, and prohibit insurance
companies from denying coverage because of preexisting
medical conditions.
A senior Democratic leadership aide told the Associated
Press that Congressional Budget Office analysis showed
the bill would reduce federal deficits by a total of
$127 billion over 10 years.

The bill is expected to be paid for by cuts in projected
Medicare payments as well as higher payroll tax on families
earning more than $250,000 a year.
Senator Reid had previously announced that the bill could
include an option for individuals to buy government-sold
insurance ? a form of "public option" ? with states
permitted to drop out of the system. That has been a
sticking point in House and Senate deliberations,
especially for Republicans and some conservative Democrats.
A key subject of debate ? in addition to a public option
and the impact on the federal deficit ? is abortion. The
House-passed bill includes the so-called "Stupak amendment"
offered by Rep. Bart Stupak (D) of Michigan, which tightens
current restrictions on the use of federal funds for
abortion services.

Newsweek reports that abortion language in the Reid bill is
less restrictive than Stupak. But it could well reappear as
House-Senate negotiators try to work out their differences
in conference committee.
According to the CBO, the House-passed bill, approved on
a near-party line vote of 220-215, would cover 96 percent
of all Americans at a cost of about $1.2 trillion.
Reid needs to get 60 Senators on board in order to prevent
a Republican filibuster. Earlier Wednesday, he met with
three moderate Democrats who have expressed concern about
the bill: Ben Nelson of Nebraska, Mary Landrieu of
Louisiana, and Blanche Lincoln of Arkansas (who faces
reelection next year).
Reuters reports that the debate is expected to begin on
Nov. 30, after the Thanksgiving holiday next week, and
last for at least three weeks. The White House has tasked
Vice President Joe Biden, Interior Secretary Ken Salazar
(both former senators), and former Senate majority leader
Tom Daschle with working to see that a Senate bill gets
passed.
