This photo taken Aug. 27, 2013 shows Bev Veals waiting for her chemotherapy treatment at Duke Cancer Center in Durham, N.C. Coping with advanced cancer, Veals was in the hospital for chemo this summer when she got a call that her health plan was shutting down. Then, the substitute coverage she was offered wanted $3,125, on top of premiums. It sounds like one of the insurance horror stories President Barack Obama used to sell his health overhaul to Congress, but Veals wasnât in the clutches of a profit-driven company. Instead, sheâs covered by Obamaâs law _ one of about 100,000 people with serious medical issues in a financially troubled government program. (AP Photo/Gerry Broome)

FILE - In the Sept. 6, 2013, file photo Senate Majority Leader, Democrat Harry Reid of Nevada heads to the Senate floor to introduce a resolution for the authorization of military action in support of President Barack Obama's request for a strike against Syria. Congress returns Monday, Sept. 9, to a momentous vote on whether the U.S. should attack Syria; that question overshadows the crowded, contentious agenda of budget fights, health care, farm policy and possible limits on the government's surveillance of millions of Americans. Many lawmakers stand in opposition to Obama's promised strikes amid fears of U.S. involvement in an extended Mideast war, and public fatigue after over decade-old conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.
