Video: House Passes ObamaCare Bill with 220-215 Vote5.052

The Democratic-controlled House passed the ObamaCare legislation tonight by a vote of 220-215. There were 39 Democrats who voted against the bill, and one lone Republican, Anh “Joseph” Cao (R-LA), who voted for it. (video below)

Pelosi gained just enough Blue-Dog Democrats to support the bill by allowing them to offer and pass an amendment that would prohibit the use of Federal Funds to pay for abortions under the new legislation. Whether or not that amendment will survive the upcoming Senate Bill or the reconciling of the two bills if the Senate passes one, is far from certain.

This video is from the VoiceofAmericans2008 YouTube channel.
