2010 White House health care summit

Convened by President Barack Obama, the one-day  2010 White House health care summit, held on 25 March 2010, was a face-to-face meeting among Democratic and Republican lawmakers from both houses of Congress. As opposed to the 2009 White House Forum on Health Reform, there were no representatives of interest groups, but a concentration on the political process. Both sides agreed the current health care delivery system is broken and that there are severe problems with the proposed legislation.
