healthcare debate gets heated as time is closing in

The battle over health care over at capital hill heated during a rare Saturday session where Senate Democrats voted down on an Republican Amendment to the massive healthcare overhall bill that wouldve protected massive cuts on the healthcare bill.

Obama who is at Capital Hill is pressuring Democrats to make a decsion on the #1 trillion bill before Christmas.

The legislation would provide coverage to more than 30 million additional people over the next decade with a new requirement for nearly everyone to purchase insurance. There would be new marketplaces where people could shop for and compare insurance plans, and lower-income people would get subsidies to help them afford coverage.
