House Passes Health Care Legislation

 

The U.S. House of Representatives passed the Affordable Health Care for America Act on Saturday 11/7/2009 by a vote of 220-215. The bill now moves on to the Senate, where it is expected to meet stiff resistance.

The House passed H.R. 3962, the Affordable Health Care for America Act, by a vote of 220-215. One Republican voted in favor of the bill and some conservative Democrats broke with their party to vote against it.

Health care insurance reform passed the U.S. House of Representatives by a narrow margin Saturday, but a group who supported the act used Monday to protest the no votes of two Missouri congressmen at their district offices.
