U.S. Sen. Richard Burr will roll out his health care idea this morning.
The Winston-Salem Republican will join fellow Sen. Tom Coburn and Reps. Paul Ryan and Devin Nunes to introduce a comprehensive health care bill at 11 a.m.
With Democratic majorities in both chambers considering major health care reform this year, the Burr proposal will be a GOP counterproposal.
Their plan would tax health care benefits to fund tax credits for people buying their own insurance.
The press conference will be carried live on Fox News.

Re: Burr to roll out health care plan
RobSchofield - thanks for pointing out the Adam Linker story and he is right politicians do name legislation certain things in order to attract support.
Recent Examples - Stimulus Package
Hagan's Lily Leadbetter Fair Pay Act - we already have fair pay in America, this merely changed the statue of limitations...
So RobSchofield, are you merely a DEMOCRAT trying to discredit Burr because he is a Republican by ignoring the double standard perpetrated by the Democrats.
Linder's article attacks Dole for the SCHIP - but what no liberal talking point will admit is the fact that SCHIP does offer health insurance to children whose parent's A. already pay for it or B. can afford. I understand that there are children that need health insurance and those should be helped, but why are we just wasting money on kids that A. have it or B. whose parents can provide it. But then again, it was all about the children and how dare a Republican fight the wasting of money on this issue...
JamesP - speaking of looking out for personal interest - the reason you were canned from CapStrat is because you were merely looking out for you "progressive" personal interest on company time and with resources...
James promoting his progressive agenda at CapStrat
James making friends for his "honesty and objectivity"
As far as Burr, well Hagan's husband is trying to steal money from the taxpayers with his "lawsuit" against the state of North Carolina.
