Here’s a mini summary;
President Barack Obama insisted Monday the time is now for healthcare reform as he geared up for a major address to Congress this week aimed at getting his top domestic policy priority back on track.
Taking his case for a healthcare overhaul to Americas economically hard-hit heartland, Obama sought to seize back the initiative on the divisive issue after losing ground to critics during a turbulent summer.
Its time to do whats right for Americas working families, to put aside the partisanship, to come together as a nation, to pass health insurance reform now this year, Obama told a wildly cheering crowd at a Labor Day picnic held by the AFL-CIO union coalition in Cincinnati, Ohio.
