US government to raise debt ceiling
While all eyes are focused on the 7am Senate vote to pass its health care bill tomorrow, that's not the only work the chamber will be doing. It'll also pass legislation that raises the US debt ceiling by $290 billion dollars, which is enough to keep the government running 'till about mid February.

Naturally, doing this will get political, as the current minority party, the Republicans, seek to blame Democrats in general and Obama specifically for the high level of debt
