Putting Patients First

Senators Baucus and Kennedy sent a letter to President Obama this week saying their committees plan to vote on comprehensive health reform legislation in early June, which means legislation could be sent to the full Senate for a vote soon afterward. This is an extraordinarily ambitious schedule. The House also expects to send legislation to the floor for a vote this summer, with hopes for final action on a conference agreement in the fall.
