House passes health reform bill

The House of Representatives voted 219-212 to pass the Senate's $940 billion health reform legislation. No Republicans voted in favor of the bill. "Today we have the opportunity to complete the great unfinished business of our society and pass health insurance reform for all Americans as a right, not a privilege," House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said. The Wall Street Journal (3/22) , The New York Times (free registration) (3/21) , The Washington Post(3/22)
