Roby Brock's weekly Talk Business report

This week's Talk Business report by Roby Brock includes an interview with Mike Ross on the status of health care reform in Washington. Here's his video, along with another recent video that includes Ross on CNN. Ross states that there are three issues outside of costs that are key to bringing members of the Blue Dog coalition into the fold on this issue: (1) A public option plan will compete with private insurance; (2) "If you have health insurance today and you like what you’ve got, you will be able to keep it," he said; and (3) Ross also says the maintaining the right to "choose your doctor" is a provision that he won’t bend on.
