The House of Representatives will vote this week on the Senate version of health insurance reform legislation, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (H.R. 3590). This critical vote will affect the ability to pass a final health reform package this year and expand coverage to millions of uninsured Americans, protect low-income and vulnerable populations, rest on a financially sustainable foundation and guarantee affordability of care.
