March 23, 2010: The U.S. Congress passed the landmark healthcare bill in a rare Sunday session, March 21. It was not passed in the customary manner, where the House passes a version and the Senate passes their own version, then the two are merged with compromises before it is voted on again by both houses, then sent to the president for his signature and becomes law.
It is a well-known fact that the Republicans have been receiving their instructions from the health insurance companies, who heavily fund their re-election campaigns and who do not want a health bill at all. Revision means forcing them to insure millions of marginally healthy people as well as those with bad health records (pre-existing conditions).
This time, the House passed the Senate bill without any changes. Healthcare became law when the president signed it on Tuesday, March 23.
To fulfill promises made to House lawmakers, reconciliation to the main healthcare bill was passed first by the Senate, then the House. Republicans offered 40 amendments to the bill, in a final desperate attempt to change the bill enough to force the House to vote again, but Democrats steadily rejected each amendment.
In the end, Republicans voted unanimously against the reconciliation, threatening to take the issue to their election campaigns to win enough seats to repeal healthcare.
