Calif. Democrats go their own way on health care« Thread Started on Apr 24, 2007, 11:36pm » --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Calif. Democrats go their own way on health careSchwarzenegger's bid for universal coverage is stalled, so legislators press for a narrower plan to win consensus.By Jordan Rau, Times Staff WriterApril 22, 2007 read at source> http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me ... SACRAMENTO — While Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger makes little political headway on his proposed health care overhaul, Democratic legislative leaders are forging ahead with their own approach — one that would insure millions of Californians but would not provide the universal coverage the governor seeks.Despite three months of extensive discussions with doctors, insurers, businesses and others, the administration has not yet offered health-care legislation. Those interests remain concerned that Schwarzenegger's prescription will place too big a financial burden on them.So Assembly Speaker Fabian Nuñez (D-Los Angeles) and Senate President Pro Tem Don Perata (D-Oakland) have agreed to press ahead with their own program, hoping to meld legislation that each has been developing all year.
