221. are there 51 votes in the Senate to pass Medicare for all?
Sorry but if we wait until we have 51 members supporting it I doubt Democrats would be the majority any more.

The GOP would be delighted if Dems put up legislation they didn't have the votes for.

As far as the abortion issue, it's nothing but a smoke screen to derail the health reform bill and divide people on social issues.
