Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said Tuesday he still hopes to have a health care reform bill on the floor of the Senate by Sept. 28.Reid acknowledged there is a lot of work to do to get a bill ready for a full Senate debate between now and then, but he said it is “certainly possible— to take it up by the end of the month.Speaking to reporters, Reid said Senate Finance Chairman Max Baucus’ plan to introduce his health care reform bill on Wednesday would help shift the debate from the small conference room where the Montana Democrat has been holding bipartisan talks with three Republicans and two other Democrats to the entire Democratic Conference.“We now are going to have the full caucus more heavily involved,— Reid said. “As you know, there’s been mainly three Democratic Senators involved in the Finance Committee package. … This Thursday, we’re going to have another special caucus to talk about the Finance Committee package.
