The 111th Congress of the United States has passed HR 3590, aka Health Care Reform Bill... It will now be signed into law by President Obama sometime this week. WE DID IT! 219 - 212... This is HUGE. Obama ran on a platform of change and Health Care Reform is his first major victory. I applaud the American Public and our elected officials who voted for reform on their commitment to improve the quality of life for all Americans and future generations of Americans.
The Reconciliation Bill also passed in the house and is expected to be voted on by the Senate in the next week or two.
I'm happy to say that I can once again say I am proud to be an American and I love my Government.
Offtop: If Speaker Pelosi wants to run for the White House in 2016, she totally has my vote.
