Several reports have said that the House Tri-Committee bill will be released today. We'll look over that document to see if anything has changed from the House Tri-Committee discussion draft, and if it has, then we'll be working together to push Members of Congress on these three committees below to submit amendments to make the public option, national insurance exchange, and other elements stronger during the mark-ups of the bill in all the three committees. We'll also be watching like hawks and working to get committee staffers to pull bad amendments offered by their bosses during the mark-ups.
Committee On Education and Labor
Committee On Energy and Commerce
Committee on Ways and Means
See these three committees above? They'll each be doing a mark-up of the House Tri-Committee bill, so we really do have to be on alert for the amendments they might offer on this.
We've done it! We've finished the Google Documents spreadsheet! Thank you everyone! Please feel free to unrecommend this diary now.
Don't forget to donate to our heroes in Congress who have stood up for the public option at Act Blue!
