Obama to ask for 634 billion dollars over 10 years for healthcare
President Barack Obama will ask for 634 billion dollars over 10 years to pay for healthcare in his 2010 budget due to be unveiled on Thursday, an administration official said.
President Barack Obama released a $950 billion health care reform proposal Monday aimed at pleasing the warring wings of his own party and bringing along skeptical voters, in part by including a provision to put off an unpopular tax on high-cost health insurance plans until 2018.
