Democrats
have reached a deal on an executive order on abortion that could hand them a victory on healthcare.
"Eight or
nine" Democrats, including Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.), will announce
the deal at a 4 p.m. press conference, according to an anti-abortion
Democrat.
"We've changed [our votes]," said Rep. Steve Driehaus (D-Ohio).
Driehaus said he's seen the executive order and can now vote for the healthcare bill. He said Stupak has signed off, as well.
