MICHEL MARTIN, host:
Now we want to talk more about health care. The health care overhaul bill signed by President Obama on March 23rd has been lauded as a history making and needed correction to our flawed health care delivery system, or a budget-busting monster that will come back to haunt us in years to come.
There are many aspects of the bill that will be vetted in weeks to come, but we wanted to talk about one overlooked aspect. It makes a lot of changes for women. Here to take us through what these changes are and what they mean is Marcia Greenberger. She's the founder and co-president of the National Women's Law Center. Marcia, thank you so much for being with us.
Ms. MARCIA GREENBERGER (Founder and Co-President, National Women's Law Center): Thank so much for having me here.
