Two Conservative Dems Swing 'Yes'
New World Disorder
With news from the Congressional Budget Office showing health-care
legislation will save $138 billion over the next decade while continuing to
expand coverage to 32 million currently uninsured Americans, two legislators
on the fence announced they would now vote for the bill. Congress watchers
believe House Speaker Nancy Pelosi believes she is between five and 10 votes
from the 216 she needs to pass the bill. Along with Colorado's Betsey
Markey, Tennessee Rep. Bart Gordon, a Blue Dog Democrat, voted against the
bill during its first rounds, but has since changed his decision. "In
November, I said I hoped the Senate and House could work out the difference
and produce a bill I could support-one that takes responsible steps to make
health care more affordable for our economy and for our families and small
businesses," he said. However, Rep. Stephen Lynch (D-MA) voted yes on the
previous bill and is now leaning no, in part because of taxes to high-end
plans, and so is Rep. Zack Space (D-OH).
