TPMDC is on hand for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s press conference about the merged health care bill.

We’re hearing that once Reid presents the plan, leadership staffers soon after will huddle with Democratic Senate aides to explain its elements.

The question-and-answer session will allow staffers to get a clear sense of what is in the bill, and particularly detail the way the public option opt-out will work. Our source said this will help on-the-fence senators start making up their mind.
