(CNSNews.com) - During his speech at a National Press Club luncheon,
House Judiciary Chairman John Conyers (D-Mich.), questioned the point
of lawmakers reading the health care bill.

"I love these members, they get up and say, 'Read the bill,'" said Conyers.

"What good is reading the bill if it's a thousand pages and you don't
have two days and two lawyers to find out what it means after you read
the bill?"
