Baron Hill (IN-09) Leans 'Yes' on Healthcare Bill
March 10, 2010
After taking a beating for his previous vote for a government takeover of healthcare, Hill looks like a ‘Yes’ again.
From TheRepublic.com: U.S. Rep. Baron Hill, D-Ind., favors an overhaul of the nation’s health care system, but is waiting to see how differences in House and Senate health care bills are fixed before deciding whether to support the final version.
“My vote on a final bill is dependent upon several factors, many of which are in limbo and could be contained in the measure rectifying the House and Senate bills,” Hill said in a press release.
The fiscal impact of the Senate’s version encourages the 9th District representative. Hill said Congressional Budget Office’s review of the fiscal language indicates it would reduce the federal deficit by $132 billion over the first 10 years and up to $1.3 trillion in the decade beyond.
