Healthcare bill

Senate Democratic leaders announced they've reached "broad agreement" on a package of provisions to replace the public option, a move that means their version of the health care bill is morphing into something that looks less and less like the House version.
Senate leaders aren't releasing details of the revised plan, so it's unclear how much of the bill will be changed.

The only thing that i see out of the revised bill is that a lot of dems and mostly all republicans want to pass an amendment to redus=ce the amount of money that the govt gives to abortions. It is a small step to outlawing the act in general. Also the House and the Senate bill are getting farther and farther apart. This is good news for republicans becuase if they can cause the bill from going to the floor and getting passed by next year then hopefully they will get more republicans in and more votes against it.
