Conway: Odds of Passing Health Care Is Better than a Month Ago

‘It seems that there are no Democrats who want to support healthcare reform’

EXCERPT:

HEMMER: "If that’s the case then, you have the majority in the House at the moment. Again, the number is 216. Is it better or worse than it was a month ago?"
CONWAY: "It’s better. You have people at the table negotiating with each other, different provisions, there have been amendments added to the bill since last month and it is better. It is good that it is happening, meaning that this is something that is still a centerpiece of the domestic agenda here at the White House and we recognize because we hear from them daily Americans who either had insurance plans, had care and coverage that they relied upon and they lost it and then we hear from other people who were relying upon the Affordable Care Act, the ObamaCare to get them care and they were left behind. So we’re trying to address all of those individuals as well. It’s a very complicated topic but it's very important."
