Democrats' Secret Health Care Bill Unveiled:
|
|
After weeks of waiting as a handful of Senate Democrats crafted legislation behind closed doors, the Democrats' health care plan has at last been unveiled. The bill was drafted in secret over seven weeks and then sent for scoring to the Congressional Budget Office, a process which went on for three and a half weeks and only produced a brief - but costly - estimate (which may be a testament to the size and convoluted nature of the final legislation). Now the question is, how long will the American people have to review the bill before it is voted on by the Senate?

Republican Health Care Plans:
- Focus on health coverage for all 300 million Americans, including the 47 million uninsured.
- Are health care plans you can afford.
- Allow you and your doctor to make your health care decisions, not some Washington bureaucrat.
- Emphasize prevention and wellness.
- Give low-income Americans the same opportunities and choices that most Americans already have.
- Don’t make it harder for American businesses to compete in the world marketplace by adding to their costs.
- Won’t saddle your children and grandchildren with trillions of dollars of debt.
- Should be enacted at a pace that lets us do it right.
