Americans United for Change released this statement about Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s announcement today about the Senate health care reform bill:

Tom McMahon, acting executive director, Americans United for Change: “Over the last several weeks, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid was forced to choose between the urgent need that everyday Americans have competitive choices when they buy health insurance or the insurance industry pressure to maintain its stranglehold on our health care.

“Senator Reid’s announcement that the Senate health care bill will include a public health insurance option, shows that he has refused to buckle in the face of withering pressure from the big insurance companies and sided instead with everyday health care consumers.”
