Milwaukee: Saturday night the U.S. Senate voted 60-39 to proceed with the debate on health care reform. The vote clears the way for a historic debate on meaningful health care reform to begin after the Thanksgiving Recess.

“There was an all-out effort to end the health care reform debate in the Senate before it even got started,” said Robert Kraig, Executive Director of Citizen Action of Wisconsin. “The successful vote Saturday night keeps the historic movement for meaningful health care reform on track for the passage of a bill in December or January.”
