Obama's Schedule Dec. 21

Obama will speak at 11:30 am eastern on effective government. It will probably be live streamed at WhiteHouse.gov.
Now that the manager's amendment (changes to the Senate healthcare bill) passed (late last night), the next vote will be on the substitute amendment and then a vote on the whole bill, which will probably happen on Christmas eve, when a simple majority of 51 votes are needed. Then the House bill and the Senate bill have to be reconciled.
