In an update of our post from this morning, CongressDailyPM reported:

"Harry and Louise" are back, but this time they're supporting health reform.

The duo, famous for ads opposing then-President Bill Clinton's health reform plan in 1994, will star in a new multimillion-dollar ad backed by Families USA and Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America that begins running this weekend.

The actors, Louise Clark and Harry Johnson, appeared on Capitol Hill today with Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee members today to cheerlead for the healthcare overhaul the panel approved this week. Also appearing at the event were former Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle, D-S.D.; John Podesta, a former Clinton administration official and president of the Center for American Progress; AFL-CIO President John Sweeney; and Families USA President Ron Pollack, among others. All represent progressive groups that strongly back the HELP Committee's $611 billion overhaul, which would provide for a public plan option.

"This bill does not tinker around the edges," said Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa. "This is a paradigm shift."

This is the second time in the past year that Harry and Louise have come out for health care reform. Back in August 2008, the two appeared in a series of television ads paid for by American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network, the American Hospital Association, the Catholic Health Association, Families USA, and the National Federation of Independent Business. The ads were timed to run during the Democratic and Republican national conventions last year.
