Coburn Forces Reading of Single Payer Bill

On principle, Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont introduced a single-payer health care amendment, although it has no chance of passing. Immediately, Tom Coburn demanded that the entire bill be read out loud in the US Senate. It’s 767 pages long. There are two things that can be learned from this, 1) The Democrats are about to pass a health care bill of some sort and 2) Tom Coburn and the GOP are desperate to delay the vote as long as possible, because the majority is ready to pass it.
