Daily Kos: Action Alert: Help House Progressives Get 218 on Robust Public Option
Tomorrow at 2:00, the House Democratic Caucus will meet and determine what version of the public option goes into the House bill. Pelosi announced earlier today that there's probably the 218 for a good public option, but report are that they are only 12-15 votes away from the strongest version of the bill, the Medicare Plus 5 version that ties public option rates to Medicare reimbursement rates.
Having the strongest possible House bill going in to conference with the Senate is critical, and it's within reach. Before 2:00 tomorrow, please make calls to the following "leaning" Dems, those who are considering supporting the Medicare Plus 5 version according to Hill activists. The first number is their DC office, the others are their district office numbers.....
