In the United States, Senators have passed the final Senate version of a historic healthcare reform bill. The bill aims to cover 31 million uninsured Americans and could lead to the biggest change in US healthcare in decades. The Senate bill was adopted by 60 votes to 39, with senators voting along party lines. The legislation's passage follows months of political wrangling. The bill's passage is a major boost to President Barack Obama, who has made reform a priority. However, it must still be reconciled with more expansive legislation passed by the House of Representatives.
