enough on the subsidies in the bill that help people to buy insurance. "Most people want coverage. People shouldn't focus so much on what

the rules are in terms of making you get coverage," she said. "I think the good news for most people is they'll be able finally to have some

choices, some ability to really control their own health decisions, and some help paying for it. It's really one of the biggest middle-class tax cuts

for health care that's ever been put in place in the history of the country."The health-care law's potential price tag went up today, when the

Congressional Budget Office released a new estimate forecasting an additional $115 billion in discretionary spending over the next decade. The

CBO had earlier set that cost at $778 billion over the next 10 years. And, with corresponding revenues and cost reductions factored in, the

agency said the reformShirts north face jackets north face north face outlet store discount north face jackets Men's Spyder Jackets north face factory outlet your jacket measure would reduce the deficit by $138 billion over the same time period. The new figures wipe out much of that

deficit reduction and bring the total price above the politically sensitive trillion-dollar barrier. Sebelius said she hadn't seen the new CBO figures

but that the new projected spending wasn't part of the bill's "core."There's lots of discretionary funding," she said. "So if funding is made

available for this program or that program a€” there are lots of ideas in the bill that aren't really priced out. And I think that will be on a case-by-

case basis. When Congress feels that there are appropriate dollars to spend, they'll allocate them. But that really isn't in the core package of the

bill."Even though it is the law of the land, health-care reform continues to face fierce resistance from some quarters — 22 states have either filed

or threatened to file lawsuits claiming that the insurance mandate is unconstitutional. Some GOP senators have indicated that the issue will come

up in Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan's confirmation hearings — a prospect that Sebelius says won't yield much substantive discussion. "It's

unlikely that she or any other nominee would engage in a real discussion" on an issue that could come before the court, Sebelius said, but she's

confident that the mandate passes constitutional muster and dismisses the lawsuits as political maneuvers.
"I know that there have been some challenges by attorneys general — most of whom are actually candidates for some higher office — and I

think it's not unlikely that this has as much to do with politics as it does with constitutional law," Sebelius said. "But we're going to move ahead

and implement the strategies of the plan. And there's a lot of good news available for Americans, including the policy we rolled out today.http://www.tunesmith.net/forums
