3. This is what I've gleaned.....
I understand there will be 3 votes. The first one is a procedural vote on the rules of the debate, then a vote on the changes House Democrats have sought to the Senate health care bill and finally a vote on the Senate bill itself. I believe this all starts at 1PM with the final Senate bill vote at 3PM. This is the best information I've gleaned from different sites.

7. Schedule for House, from TPM,m as of 9:39 am ET.
Edited on Sun Mar-21-10 09:51 AM by dixiegrrrrl

"The House convenes at 1 p.m. ET, and Democrats are expecting the actual vote to come between 6 and 10 p.m. ET.
As described yesterday by Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-MD), the House will debate for two hours the reconciliation package, a.k.a., the "fix" to the Senate bill. Following the vote on the reconciliation bill, they will then vote on the Senate bill."

TPM is my go to for news I can trust
