Nancy PelosiHouse Democrats are living up to their promise of a more open and transparent government by posting legislation of the final health care bill three days before the final vote.  This will give the American people time to go through the bill before the vote occurs.  Posting bills online allows anyone to quickly search through the document and provides greater access to the information than has been available in previous administrations.

Nancy Pelosi issued a statement saying, “The House Democratic Leadership is committed to having the final health insurance reform legislation online for 72 hours before the House votes, for all Members and the American people to review. We will continue the transparent process this landmark legislation has had for months.”
