House Democrats will get their first look at actual legislative language Thursday morning, showing exactly how President Obama’s proposal would change the Senate bill in reconciliation.

But it’s only bits and pieces, House Democratic aides told me. There’s no final reconciliation bill ready and no preliminary Congressional Budget Office score.

House Democrats are caucusing at 10 a.m. to go over the language that has so far been drafted, and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is expected to make brief comments when that’s over, around noon.

Pelosi has also rescheduled her weekly press conference from Thursday to Friday.
