Baucus Health Care Bill and Shell Bill Tactics
The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) released a report on the Baucus health care bill, estimating it will cost $829 billion over ten years while reducing the deficit. The hosts discuss a religious exemption for Christian Scientists and the legislative tactic of "shell bills," where health care language is inserted into unrelated bills like H.R. 1586.
