Senate Opens Partisan Health Debate on Obama Plan
The Senate began weeks of partisan debate over a near 1 trillion health bill backed by President Obama and Democrats. The plan would require most Americans to have insurance and insurers to cover all paying customers, cutting pre existing condition refusals. The CBO estimates the bill would cut deficits by 130 billion over ten years, with 31 million insured and up to 94 percent coverage achievable. Funding comes from Medicare cuts, taxes on the wealthy, drugmakers, device makers, and high cost insurers.
