Senate Approves Motion to Proceed on Obamacare »

Senate has 60 Votes to Proceed

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D, Nev.) now seems to have his 60 votes for the motion to proceed. Blanche Lincoln (D, Ark.) and Mary Landrieu (D, Louisiana) have both announced that they will vote yes on Reid’s motion.

This is not a vote on the actual bill, mind you. This is a motion to proceed to debate and vote the bill out of committee and onto the floor. The Senate will now take up Obamacare after its Thanksgiving break.
