of the Senate Bill, Patient Protection and Affordable
Care Act (H.R. 3590), and the House Bill, Affordable
Health Care for America Act (H.R. 3962).

substitute for the public option, such as a national
exchange, rather than a state-based one; increased

that they are completed by the President's State of
the Union address (late January or early
February).
