DescriptionThe White House is offering to share Republicans' healthcare alternative on its website before the two sides sit down for their bipartisan summit later this week.

Press Secretary Robert Gibbs made the political overture during his press briefing on Monday, telling reporters he would be "happy to post" the GOP plan next to the proposal President Barack Obama unveiled and published online earlier in the day.

Gibbs said that arrangement would ensure the "American people can come to one location and find out the parameters of what will largely be discussed on Thursday."

"The process started today, with our posting of ideas," Gibbs said, noting the White House had created a new healthcare Web page on Monday in preparation for Thursday's healthcare summit, which will be televised on C-SPAN.
