Vote expected today for the Senate Financial Committee

Today is the day that the Senate Financial Committee is expected to vote and pass on bill that will overhaul the current American health care system. After the Senate Financial Committee has passed the bill, then it will be in the hands of the Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to combine the bill passed by the Senate Financial Committee and the bill already approved by the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions.

If the revised bill then picks up 60 Democratic votes in the Senate, Reid needs 60 votes to overcome a possible Republican filibuster. Read more about the vote here. Follow the vote via Live Blogging at the New York Times.
