The health-care package destined for a vote in America’s House of Representatives on Sunday will cost $940 billion over the next ten years. Though the Congressional Budget Office score (as the estimate is known), along with the bill's final details, seems to clear the air on what the House will vote on, the package and the process remain complicated. The House is facing a two-part vote to pass the Senate bill and also tweaks through a process called “reconciliation”. The former may be done through a rule that Republicans are saying is unconstitutional (though they have used it themselves). Procedural trickery or not, everyone in the House will cast a vote on the Senate bill plus reconciliation. Whether it passes or not is far more important than quibbles about the House rules. The CBO also reckon that the health-care package, through savings and new revenue, will cut the total deficit over those years by $138 billion against a baseline scenario. After that, the savings get even bigger, totalling (a much more speculative) $1.2 trillion by 2029, according to some Democrats. But the sums are questionable. The CBO process has been so thoroughly gamed that the true figures could be quite different. The Republicans claim that it will cost far more and totally reject the idea that it will cut the deficit by such a sum over the second decade.</span><p><b>NewsTrust Rating: </b><a href="http://newstrust.net/stories/1048734?ref=rss">3.8 average</a> - <a href="http://newstrust.net/stories/1048734?ref=rss">3 Reviews »</a> - <a href="http://newstrust.net/stories/1048734/toolbar?ref=rss">Review It</a>        <a href="http://newstrust.net/">Visit NewsTrust</a> | <a href="http://newstrust.net/about">About</a> | <a href="http://newstrust.net/partners/feeds/rss">Sign Up</a> | <a href="http://newstrust.net/about/disclaimer">Disclaimer</a></p> Health Care U.S. Congress Obama Administration Republican Party Democratic Party U.S. Economy U.S. Senate U.S. House of Representatives U.S. Budget Five questions about the health-care legislation Fri, 19 Mar 2010 00:00:00 -0700 http://newstrust.net/stories/1037056?ref=rss http://newstrust.net/stories/1037056?ref=rss <span><a href="http://newstrust.net/sources/washington_post?ref=rss">Washington Post</a> - By Ben Pershing, Paul Kane, Alec MacGillis - Mar. 19 (Special Report) - As the House prepares to vote this weekend on the Senate's health-care bill and a reconciliation package of changes, we answer five questions about the bill, the process and what it ultimately means to the American people.</span><p><b>NewsTrust Rating: </b><a href="http://newstrust.net/stories/1037056?ref=rss">3.7 average</a> - <a href="http://newstrust.net/stories/1037056?ref=rss">6 Reviews »</a> - <a href="http://newstrust.net/stories/1037056?ref=rss">Review It</a>        <a href="http://newstrust.net/">Visit NewsTrust</a> | <a href="http://newstrust.net/about">About</a> | <a href="http://newstrust.net/partners/feeds/rss">Sign Up</a> | <a href="http://newstrust.net/about/disclaimer">Disclaimer</a></p> Health Care U.S. Congress U.S. House of Representatives Arizona Drops Children’s Health Program Fri, 19 Mar 2010 00:00:00 -0700 http://newstrust.net/stories/1036542?ref=rss http://newstrust.net/stories/1036542?ref=rss <span><a href="http://newstrust.net/sources/new_york_times?ref=rss">New York Times</a> - By Kevin Sack - Mar. 19 (News Report) - Arizona on Thursday became the first state to eliminate its Children’s Health Insurance Program when Gov.
