  • Cassidy Eyes Changes to Health Care Bill While Trying to Win Support Roll Call by Mary Ellen McIntire — Louisiana Sen. Bill Cassidy said there will be changes to a proposal he wrote to overhaul the 2010 health law as he and fellow Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina try to win more support for the measure while other lawmakers focus on tax legislation. …Cassidy said he and other sponsors need to promote the plan in the coming months so people can learn about the changes the bill would make and better understand it. He said that time could also be used to address concerns of lawmakers such as Arizona GOP Sen. John McCain, who had concerns with the abbreviated process. Neither the Senate Finance Committee nor the Health Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee has indicated they have plans to hold more hearings on the bill. The Finance Committee had a hearing on the legislation before it was pulled last week.
