Senate Finance Panel Passes $829 Billion Health Plan (Update3)
By Laura Litvan and Nicole Gaouette
Oct. 13 (Bloomberg) -- The Senate Finance Committee approved an $829 billion plan to overhaul U.S. health care, clearing the way for a full Senate debate over the broadest expansion of the government’s role in the medical system since the creation of Medicare in 1965.
Just one Republican on the panel, Senator Olympia Snowe of Maine, voted for the measure in an otherwise party-line 14-9 tally. That marked the first time a Republican in either the Democratic-controlled Senate or House has supported the revamp legislation, President Barack Obama’s top domestic priority.
“Ours is a balanced plan that can pass the Senate,” said panel Chairman Max Baucus, a Montana Democrat.
