Democrats sketch health-care priorities ahead of potential House takeover
During the brief September session, House Democrats outlined a tentative health-care plan they would pursue if they regain control of the chamber.
With the House recess ending after a two-week pause, Democratic leaders used the limited time to map out a health-care agenda. The outline remains vague, but it signals the issues they intend to prioritize should they win back the majority in the November elections. Republicans had earlier canceled the final weeks of the September session, giving lawmakers a long break before the midterms.
