I can't believe I'm going to answer such a simple question when you could easily do 3 minutes of research but OK:
The Democrats in Congress took the Public Option off the table as an olive branch to Republicunts in the failed hopes of getting a few much needed GOP votes to pass Health Reform - that was A HUGE MISTAKE because conservatives (Repugs AND Conservadems) voted no anyway..
