Congressional Democrats are trying to move forward with health care reform bit by bit, contrary to their original plan to pass a massive health care reform bill. Chad Pergram from Fox News reports that, “On Friday, two freshmen Democrats plan to unveil a bill to lift the anti-trust exemption that many health insurance companies now enjoy. House Democratic leaders plan to put that bill on the floor next week.”
It definitely isn’t the major overhaul that they were hoping for, but Pergram says “the legislation could be the first part of several ‘piecemeal’ bills that Congress tries to move as another run-up to a sweeping health care reform effort or in lieu of a major health bill.” According to Pergram, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said, “It doesn’t mean you can’t do some pieces separately.”
What do you think about Democrats starting a “piecemeal health care effort”?
