President Obama is working on health care legislation intended to reconcile differences between House and Senate Democrats that could be attached to a budget bill and avoid a Republican filibuster, according to a published report.
The president's proposal, which is still being written, will be posted on the Internet by Monday morning, senior administration officials and Congressional aides told the New York Times.
By piggybacking the legislation onto a budget bill, Democrats would be able to advance the bill with a simple majority of just 51 votes, averting a Republican filibuster in the Senate.
The White House signaled Thursday that an aggressive, all-Democratic strategy for overhauling the nation's health system remains a serious option, even as Obama invites Republicans to next week's televised summit to seek possible compromises.
"It will be a reconciliation bill," the Times quoted a Democratic aide as saying. "If Republicans don't come with any substantial offers, this is what we would do."
The administration's stance could set the stage for a political showdown, with Democrats struggling to enact the president's top domestic priority and Republicans trying to block what many conservatives see as government overreach.
Obama's plan, like the House and Senate bills, would expand coverage to some 30 million, require most Americans to carry insurance or face financial penalties, and block insurers from denying coverage to people with pre-existing medical conditions, the Times reported.
One Capitol Hill Democrat told the Times abortion remains "a wild card."
Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said Thursday that Obama plans to have a health proposal that "will take some of the best ideas and put them into a framework" ahead of the Feb. 25 summit.

The RATS are preparing a nuclear strategy in which 51 votes, including Biden, will overturn the rule of the parlimentarian, thus shutting off debate on every amendment and every point of order.
This is getting world-class ugly and dangerous.
We are not out of the woods on this legislative monstrosity.
Bush’s 2001 tax cut was passed the same way - using budgetreconciliation. There weren’t enough votes to overcome a Dem filibuster.
What did you think of that use of reconciliation?

let it be on their heads.
Thanks for the info. It looks like a good organization, had not heard of them before.
I think a tax cut is a part of the budget process.
What part of the budget process is a health Care Bill?
