奥巴马的医疗保险计划胜利通过
HEALTH CARE VICTORY FOR OBAMA IN
HOUSE:
The House delivered Sunday night on PresidentObama's top priority, a
historic restructuring of the nation's health care system that has
eluded his predecessors for more than a century.
The 219-212 House vote, coming after a tumultuous day of protests and rancorous debate, paves the way for Obama to sign the major portion of his 10-year, $940 billion plan early this week. The House was to vote later Sunday on a package of changes and send it to the Senate for final passage.
The vote assured that about 32 million Americanswill gain health insurance
coverage and millions more will win protections against losing
theirs. The legislation will raise taxes, largely on the wealthy,
and reduce future Medicare spending by about $500
billion.
