Senator Saxby Chambliss On Public Option Healthcare

– Chambliss also disputed Johnson's estimate that there are more than 40 million uninsured Americans. Chambliss estimated more than half either have insurance available, and decline coverage or are in the country illegally. He said that leaves about 14 million Americans lacking coverage.

Chambliss told W-A-B-E's Denis O'Hayer Democrats and Republicans will both have to make concessions to get a bill passed this year.
