Many of us are growing more anxious by the day that the negotiations to put the House and Senate health bills together will make too many compromises in favor of a Senate bill we know is weaker than the one passed in the House.

But there’s a limit to how many compromises we can accept before the health care bill becomes a reform bill in name only. That’s why I will oppose the final bill unless it represents a genuine improvement on the Senate bill.

I believe that the bill we passed in the House, though not perfect, would have been a major step forward in providing all Americans with quality, affordable health care that guarantees choice, and competition through a public option. Unless the final bill looks more like what we passed in the House, and less what we saw emerge from the Senate, I will not support it.
