I will OPPOSE what The Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee Releases Today

The Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions committee will release a much anticipated draft of health care reform this afternoon, but the most contentious issues, like the public insurance option and employer mandate, will be left out of the bill for now, Sen. Chris Dodd (D-Conn.) said this morning.


"There are some gaps. But there are no gaps in our determination, my determination and that of my colleagues to have a public option, pay-or-play, or biologics," Dodd said. "But I left those areas open for dicussion not because they are open for some sort of decision on whether or not we ought move in that direction. But I wanted my Republican colleagues on the committee to know I wanted to their ideas, I want to hear what they have to say."

If it's not in what's released today, it'll never be there.

I'm calling my Republican Congressperson and my Democratic Senators to voice my OPPOSITION to the "Healthcare CEO Pocket Lining Act of 2009".
