House OKs Health Care Overhaul
More Info: Ending the Democrats’ decades-long quest to create a healthcare safety net to match Social Security, the House of Representatives on Sunday night approved sweeping legislation toguarantee Americans access to medical care for the first time, delivering President Obama the biggest victory of his young presidency. The bill, which passed 219 to 212 without a single Republican vote, would make a nearly $1-trillion commitment in taxpayer money over the next decade to help an estimated 32 million uninsured Americans get health coverage.
Question: Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius predicts that Americans will embrace health care reform once they understand it? Do you agree?
