Health Care Reform (H.R. 3962)
The Affordable Health Care for America Act would expand health care coverage to 96 percent of Americans, rein in insurance company abuses, lower costs for families, business and the federal budget and improve the quality of health care. It included a public health insurance option to lower costs and increase competition, required all but the smallest employers to provide their workers with coverage or contribute to a fund to make it affordable for workers and asked the wealthiest in this country to pay their fair share to fund health care. The bill passed Nov. 7 on a 220-215 vote (R: 1-176; D: 219-39) Roll Call 887. Y=R, N=W
