This vote was on whether to kill an amendment by John Barrasso, R-Wyo., that would have required the Health and Human Services Department to certify that the health care overhaul law cleared the day before would not increase insurance premiums more than what had been projected prior to the law’s enactment. A bill is “cleared” when one chamber of Congress passes a bill that has already been passed by the other chamber; once a bill is “cleared” it is sent to the president. The law being changed aims to expand the availability of health care coverage for some 31 million Americans that are not currently covered. |
