President Obama Wins Health Care In The House



Obama.jpg

President Barack Obama won a victory in his health care initiative today. According to The New York Times, the House passed a vote of 220 to 215 to approve a $10 trillion plan to overhaul the current system over the next ten years. Democrats say the new health care plan would cover some 36 million currently uninsured Americans. The Democrats had to make some concessions to insurance coverage of abortion to win the decison. The successful vote happened shortly after President Obama spoke on Capitol Hill and making an appeal to "answer the call of history." It seems the House of Representatives heard his message. Next stop the Senate.

Steps up to the challenge..not afraid to go toe to toe with nay sayers.. has an excellent team working with him..even if he goes down in popularity he sticks to the tasks at hand to achieve the goals set forth in his campaign promises. It takes time to have things work so as the people who gave him this chance we should support any and all efforts to help this cause. This President excites me immensely. I want him and his administration to do well.

 

Love.Him.

 

Mr. President, I commend You and Your, Legislative Expereince, let us wait to see What Influence You & Your Administration have over the Senators, and their views about an American, Health Care Program for all different than the current Family Act, Private Health Programs Employment, ACCHHS, etc

I would rather watch the eligbility of income greater than 972 dollars....

Employment offers it, The State Offers It, I just cannot arrive how the non-workers stay eligbile , and non-citizens
benefits out demand the Military & Working Families!!!!

Health Care, In America should not have the deficiency of the large Social Nations, Like China, Russia and others.....

Medical Advancements should be encouraged with all making an investment at the demand of Quality Health Care, $0 Income can visit the Hospital in Emergency Situtation, and elgibility to hospitilization is evaluted by a Social Service....Daily...

Thank You, Mr. President

Healthy Now!!!!

 

It is an advancement of a Idea, in the Political efforts of the current administration, and the House of Representatives, however far from [Law}, Our Senators will evaluated and assesss the legislation before it is permitted to Law America!!!

The House of Representatives, Pelosi make commissioned efforts of "Bills", for the general articles all the time!

The Senate 100, People Elected have the greatest effects on our legislation. The time spent in the House of Representatives, is costly and the Legislation becomes assesss evaluated as conditional.

 

America & American must commend every administration for positioning iteself in America Polittical System, A Bill Progress easier in the House, than beyond the Senate Legislation: Becuase [Law} does not just happen Americqa...

We can smile about the [Bill], yet our Representatives will not even use it in their next Campign as a Success, beacuse the realistica association of legislation and law will not be viewed by the American Public!!!!

Be Fair To Yourself, "Working Class How Often Did You Opt Out of Your Health Plan to Keep the extra $35.00 dollars [Family}, $70 dollars [Individual], on a pay period.

Health Care Matters

 

Great job President Obama! May God continue to bless you, your amazing family, and the United States of America!

 

President Obama is doing a great job! Keep up the good work!

 

I truly hope the Senate doesn't jack this up for us. I see no reason whatsoever that I can comparison shop car insurance but not my own body. Nobody complains about shelling out cash for car insurance when we're unemployed. We do it for safety reasons. The same should go for health insurance so we can stop arguing with health care companies about ridiculous rates and turning down certain patients.
