Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s announcement about the framework of the Senate’s version of health care reform legislation is the dominant story out of Washington D.C. from yesterday. But we’re following a few other non-public option stories.

Representative Martin Heinrich, D-N.M., was in his district this weekend speaking to Native American groups at a town hall meeting. Peter St. Cyr, for NMPolitics.net, writes about the First Nations’ clinic in Albuquerque and has a video interview with Heinrich.

Speaking of Heinrich, the freshman Representative announced to media in a press release yesterday that he will be holding another telephone town hall tomorrow night at 6:30 p.m. This one will be focused on senior citizens and “strengthening Medicare.”

For information on how to participate, Heinrich’s staff says to call Heinrich’s district office at (505) 346-6781 or go to his Congressional Web site and RSVP.

President Barack Obama is attempting to limit the losses that traditionally come in midterm elections from the party in the White House by holding dozens of fundraisers. Obama has held 26 fundraising events since his inauguration.

At this time in his presidency, George W. Bush had held just 8 fundraising events — but White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs cited the change in campaign finance laws that banned unlimited contributions as rationale for Obama doing more fundraising events than previous Presidents.

And with the Philadelphia Phillies facing the New York Yankees in the World Series, Senators from Pennsylvania and New York have a somewhat lame wager on the outcome.

In perhaps the most unoriginal sports bet ever, New York’s senators, Charles E. Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand, and Pennsylvania’s senators, Arlen Specter and Bob Casey, are putting up Brooklyn cheesecakes against Philly cheesesteaks.

A commenter on the story reminded of a bet by then-New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani and then-Baltimore mayor Martin O’Malley over Super Bowl XXXV where the New York Giants played the Baltimore Ravens.

When the Ravens won, Giuliani wore a Ravens hat and had City Hall decorated with Baltimore Ravens purple.
