Tragedy may soften
health debate, By Jennifer Haberkorn & Carrie Budoff
Brown
When the House returns to the debate over repealing health care reform,
the rhetoric most likely will be softer — but the lines of division are
expected to be as hard as ever.
The House is expected to return to Washington next week to a more
subdued debate on repealing the health care reform law than it probably
would have had a few weeks ago.
After the Saturday assassination attempt on one of their own,
congressional House members will be tested on whether they can answer
national calls for a more civil political discourse as they debate one
of the most divisive political issues in recent history.
Repealing the health care reform law is still a top priority for House
Republicans, who expect the tone of the debate to be as measured as
possible, focused exclusively on policy differences and not political
charges.
