Rep. Vern Buchanan (R-Fla.) is going to try and compel Democrats to open up the health care debate to CSPAN tomorrow by pushing forward a nonbinding resolution.

Buchanan will force a vote on the resolution via a discharge petition, which has 151 co-sponsors, including three Democrats. That means there's a good chance a vote will be forced on the issue.
