4. I think they needed 290 (maybe 289) to over-ride.

5. Question, what was the funding mechanism on this version?
Were they actually going to make it a more equitable one, or were the Dems once again putting a regressive tax on one of the poorer segments of our society?

7. Thanks for the info.
If that's the case, then once again I hope that this bill goes in the trash where it belongs. Don't get me wrong, I would love to see UHC, and I fully support health care for all kids. I just don't believe it should come out of the pockets of those who can least afford it.
