House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said the new reconciliation package she wants the full House of Representatives to pass in a few days includes greater insurance reforms and warned that insurance companies will be “poisoning the well” with “misrepresentations” and “misinterpretations” designed to kill the bill.

Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli is urging Democrats in Washington, D.C., to reconsider the use of the “deem and pass” rule to approve health care reform and is threatening a state suit against any such comprehensive bill.

Noting that Washington, D.C., is “working out their scheme” to pass a health reform bill, the governor of Idaho has signed into law a bill blocking any individual mandate to secure health insurance and give the state the right to sue to protect that freedom.

A day after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said she is considering a maneuver to bypass an actual vote to approve comprehensive health care reform, Republicans came out firing.
