The House of Representatives is scheduled to vote on Sunday for the health care bill which was passed by the Senate back in December. Several Republicans are making a last minute stand to stop the bill requesting to start over from scratch. President Obama countered these efforts by rallying support by visiting univerisities and town hall meetings across the country. The President has also put pressure on certain members of Congress to sway their vote in favor of the bill. Even with a victory on Sunday, there will still be a lot of work to be done. The Senate will needs to pass the reconciliation fixes in legislation.

The health care bill will extend coverage to roughly 32 million Americans and cost nearly $940 billion over the next 10 years, according to the Congressional Budget Office. The bill will cut the deficit by $138 billion during those 10 years and reduce it by another $1.2 trillion over the next 10 years. President Obama postponed a trip to Indonesia and Australia until June, because he wanted to be here for this historical event and support the vote by delivering a low-key congratulatiory speech if the legisalation passes.
