To debate or not to debate the Senate's health care reform bill; that is the question. The legislative body on Saturday is expected to vote on whether to begin debate -- also known as invoking cloture -- on its version of the health care bill, which was introduced Wednesday by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. Reid says the 2,074-page bill would expand health insurance coverage to 30 million more Americans at an estimated cost of $849 billion over 10 years. A House bill was passed nearly two weeks ago. Proceedings got under way shortly before 10 a.m. and will last through the early evening.
