Nothing is quite final, but the tentative plan is to have the House Energy and Commerce Committee, one of three House panels with jurisdiction, consider the proposal next Wednesday.

More than 20 million people now depend on the Affordable Care Act for coverage. Amid all of this, the bill would have rolled back regulations designed to make insurance plans more comprehensive and more widely available. A series of assessments of the proposal and its predecessors all yielded the same conclusion.
