WASHINGTON - Democratic leaders in the U.S. House of Representatives on Friday hailed "historic" progress on healthcare legislation and pledged to continue momentum to deliver on President Barack Obama's vow of reform.

"These pivotal months will finally be our chance to deliver, and we will," House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer said.
