Health Care passed the US Senate
 

Hi,

I watched the vote at 7:00 on CNN.
Health Care passed the US Senate.

Next steps:
1. The House - Senate conference committee will reconcile the difference between the House and Senate bills
2. The final bill will go to the president to sign.

Some parts of these bills will take affect in 2010.
Other parts will take a few years to take affect.
