GOP leaders: Don't use current health bills for summit starting point - TheHill.com: "House Republican leaders said Monday the healthcare summit should not use House and Senate bills as a starting point.


House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) and Minority Whip Eric Cantor (R-Va.) said Republicans are right to be reluctant in embracing a summit if the president is unwilling to start the talks from scratch.

“If the starting point for this meeting is the job-killing bills the American people have already soundly rejected, Republicans would rightly be reluctant to participate,” the pair explained in a letter to White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel."
