This afternoon I will be chairing the Rules Committee as we meet to consider the historic Democratic health care reform bill. You can watch the meeting on C-SPAN, or on my site www.louise.house.gov.

Also, Daily Kos and Congress Matters' own David Waldman, aka Kagro X, will be in the room liveblogging.

The Rules Committee is the last stop for H.R. 3962, the Affordable Health Care for America Act, before it reaches the House floor for a vote.

Text of the bill is available on the Rules Committee site, along with the manager's amendment and the Republican substitute.
