Post's Milbank attempted to refute Obama's statement that he "expanded health care in Illinois" http://mediamatters.org/items/200712170003 The Washington Post's Dana Milbank wrote that Sen. Barack Obama's "signature legislation as a state senator, the Health Care Justice Act, merely set up a panel to craft a plan," not, as Obama claimed, "expanded health care in Illinois by bringing Democrats and Republicans together, by taking on the insurance industry." In fact, Obama sponsored a bill that expanded health insurance programs for low-income families in Illinois. Following that bill's passage, more than 150,000 additional people reportedly received health insurance through the programs. http://mediamatters.org/items/200712170003 Mon, 17 Dec 2007 15:17:55 EST Wash.
