The Senate will begin debating on the new health care bill.  60 voes will be needed to pass the bill.  But does the party have enough votes to get their through.  Some Decmocatics are already jumping ship.

One thing we can be sure off is that the Republician party is not going to help.  The bill includes $848 billion over 10 years to gradually expand coverage to most of those now uninsured.  It would bann such practices as denying coverage or charging higher premiums because of someone’s health.

The bill would help the self employed and small businesses.  Most people covered by big employers would gain more protections without major changes.  One exception would be those with high-cost insurance plan, whose premiums could rise as a result of a tax on insurers issue the coverage.

Hopefully this thing works out and we are able to get some kind of consesus so that we can arrive at the necessary 60 votes.  This will be a huge benefit to every one.
