As a Georgetown alumnus, my joy at WV's joy is subdued, to say the least. So, I'll offer up my WV to WV: *culgrat* 3/14/10 11:37 PMBlogger madawaskan <http://www.blogger.com/profile/09259086579871139667> said...
Yep looks like the public option is back in- page 116 Subtitle B---Public Health Insurance Option SEC. 221. ESTABLISHMENT AND ADMINISTRATION OF A PUBLIC HEALTH INSURANCE OPTION AS AN EXCHANGE-QUALIFIED HEALTH BENEFITS PLAN. 3/14/10 11:56 PMBlogger madawaskan <http://www.blogger.com/profile/09259086579871139667> said...
The sense of the House that the members who vote for the public option should dis-enroll from their current plan and enroll in the public option is also included in there somewhere. Probably as non-binding as prunes. 3/15/10 12:00 AMBlogger madawaskan <http://www.blogger.com/profile/09259086579871139667> said...
SEC. 227. SENSE OF THE HOUSE REGARDING ENROLLMENT OF MEMBERS IN THE PUBLIC OPTION. It is the sense of the House of Representatives that Members who vote in favor of the establishment of a public, Federal Government run health insurance option, and senior members of the President's administration, are urged to forgo their right to participate in the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program (FEHBP) and agree to enroll under that public option. (I don't know how they are numbering this and calling it only 90 pages because this looks like it is on something like page 1180 of the pdf.) btw here is a link to the pdf- House Budget Reconciliation PDF <http://budget.house.gov/doc-library/FY2010/03.15.2010_reconciliation2010.PDF> 3/15/10 12:10 AM -- Thanks for being part of "PoliticalForum" at Google Groups.
