Is Congress going to “opt-out” of real health care reform, or is the so-called opt-out provision a worthy compromise for progressives who’ve already compromised just to get to discussion of a public option? We’ll have Adam Thompson of the Progressive States Network, Paul Waldman from The American Prospect, and Representative Raul Grijalva, Co-Chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, to discuss the fate of health care reform now that it’s in the hands of the entire Congress, not just a committee.
