Blue Dog Coalition Votes For HR 3590 Health Care Bill

Now that HR 3590 has passed the US House with the help of the Blue Dog Coalition, we need to destroy the term "Blue Dog" as an acceptable hiding place for Democrats who voted for Nancy Pelosi.


The Blue Dogs voted for HR 3590 by a 30-24 margin. They don't appear so blue to me...they're looking like a Yellow Dog Coalition.

Blue Dog Leadership Team

Rep. Stephanie Herseth Sandlin (SD), Blue Dog Co-Chair for Administration
Rep. Baron Hill (IN-09), Blue Dog Co-Chair for Policy
