It's really done

Just to finalize things -

The House of Representatives on Thursday gave final approval to the budget reconciliation bill containing a package of changes to the Democrats’ sweeping health care overhaul. The bill, which Democratic leaders hailed as a landmark achievement, now goes to President Obama for his signature.

“The American people have waited for this moment for a century,” the Senate majority leader, Harry Reid of Nevada, said at a news conference. “This, of course, was a health bill. But it is also a    jobs bill, an economic recovery bill, was a deficit-reduction bill, was an anti-discrimination bill. It was truly a bill of rights. And now it is the law of the land.”

In a fitting finale to the yearlong health care saga, the budget reconciliation measure that included the final changes was approved first by the Senate and then by the House on a tumultuous day at the Capitol, as lawmakers raced to complete their work ahead of a two-week recess.

The final House vote was 220 to 207, and the Senate vote was 56 to 43, with the Republicans unanimously opposed in both chambers. (Link)
