Senate Republicans Delay Vote on Health Care Bill.
Republican Senate leaders postpone a vote on the controversial health care bill until after the July 4 recess. Republican senators from states that rely heavily on Medicaid are mounting opposition, after congressional budget analysts estimated 22 million people are expected to lose health coverage under the bill. What are the stakes for Latinos under the Senate health plan? What are the basic requirements for an acceptable plan? Can Republican leaders find the needed votes during the amendment process?
Guests: Dr. Jane Delgado, Executive Director, National Alliance for Hispanic Health, Washington, DC; Hector Barreto, Chair, The Latino Coalition, Republican Analyst, Los Angeles, CA.
