WASHINGTON - President Barack Obama intends to visit the Capitol on Friday to meet with House Democrats and make a final pitch for health care legislation scheduled for a weekend vote, according to congressional officials.
The president's meeting with the rank and file will occur little more than a year after his election helped swell the Democratic majority in Congress and make possible the ambitious drive to remake the nation's health care system.
The officials who disclosed the president's plans spoke only on condition of anonymity ahead of a formal announcement. The White House declined to confirm details.
The Democratic House leadership hopes to have legislation on the House floor for a vote on Saturday.
There is no timetable for the health care overhaul bill in the Senate, where the legislation's fate is in considerably more doubt.
