In the wake of August recess drama, the House of Representatives will delay a vote on a final health care reform bill until the end of September, according to a report in Politico.

“Leaders now say the House will put off a vote on health reform until the end of September, to provide a cooling-off period from the raucous town meetings, and to give strategists a better sense of where the Senate is headed.”

That probably won’t sit well with reformers–queasy from the last two weeks of unsettling news–who would like to see the process put back on track as quickly as possible.
