House of Representatives Set to Vote on Health Reform as early as this Weekend

The final health care reform legislation (H.R. 4782), will be voted on by the House of Representatives this weekend. This bill is intended to reconcile the differences between the House and Senate versions of healthcare reform legislation. The new legislative package, which was unveiled Thursday by House Democrats, incorporates many of the changes President Barack Obama had recommended last month to lawmakers to get the then-stalled reform drive moving again. Many of the proposals in the bill run contrary to consumer driven health care and we strongly encourage you to familiarize yourself with the bill and contact your representatives to voice your opinion prior to this weekend.
