Governors Meet to Talk Health Care Reform

The World

The next two weeks may determine whether President Obama’s health care reform plans go through. As the health care battle has gone to the states, many of the nation’s governors (who are attending the National Governors Association this weekend) say they worry that Congress will force states to pick up extra health care expenses. Joining The Takeaway this morning with the current status of the bill is Todd Zwillich. And also joining the discussion is the new Chairman of the National Governors Associations, Jim Douglas, the Republican Governor of Vermont.
