AC360°

All eyes are on the Senate right now, after the House passed its version of the health care reform bill late on Saturday night.

But what kind of movement can we expect on the Senate Floor? Some say we won’t see voting anytime soon. Sen. Joe Lieberman is repeating his vow to never let a bill with a public option come to a vote. So how will the health care debate play out in the Senate?

Do you have questions about the next step for health care reform? Let us know!

Send us a text message with your question. Text AC360 (or 22360), and you might hear it on air!

What is the real timeline?

It seems that the Democratic caucus pandered to Lieberman in order to keep him with them on important issues like this so if he is going to behave this way, why don't they kick him to the curb?

I do not care about the abortion part that was included. I do believe in a woman's right to chose. I do not think government money should pay for abortion ever. I am really concern about the privacy issues in the stupak amendment for women health care. It sound outrageous and scary.

Can you please explain the privacy issues with the stupak amendment fully?

If abortion isn't covered in the public option then it is the poor who will suffer. People with private insurance or more income can get abortions since IT IS LEGAL. Since that is discrimination against poor, minorities, etc. and hopefully unconstitutional and wouldn't it have to be removed?

If a bill is passed with a public option why on earth will it take years to get it going when we started medicare months after the bill passed. We need LBJ back on duty.

What are we supposed to do for THREE YEARS!! before any bills go into effect? To the Senate: Please address the healthcare crisis NOW!

Many small business owners are no longer able to pay these high premiums.We may be forced to apply for Medicaid if we get sick! I am calling for an immediate solutions!!!!!!

PS Let everyone know that Senator Lieberman is representing Hartford Insurance corporations from Connecticut and Not the average American.
