| Dear Friends: Health Care (or lack of) is VERY VERY REAL | by MsSnooty for everyone |
Teddy Roosevelt first proposed health care for all in the early 1900s. FDR fought for it in the 1930s. LBJ won Medicare and Medicaid in the 1960s but wasn't able to provide coverage for everyone. Bill Clinton tried in the early 1990s. And since Barack Obama was inaugurated in January, Congress has been heatedly debating health care reform.
We've been talking about this issue for over 100 years. Enough talk. It's time to get something done!
Click here to call your Senators and tell them enough politicking, it's time to get real health reform done.
We've already made historic progress. Three committees in the House have passed strong health reform bills and referred them to the floor. And the late Senator Kennedy's committee has passed a strong bill as well.
Still, some in the Senate are waffling and asking for more time. Give them a call and tell them to support Kennedy's HELP bill that will lower our costs, improve our coverage, and give us the choice of a public health insurance option to keep the insurance industry honest.
This week, the Senate is back in DC. Click here to call your Senators right now, when your call can make the most impact!
We've waited long enough. We can get real reform done this year. Call your Senators today and make them do it!
To your health,
