Contact Your Representatives and Senators
The emergence of Blue Dog (fiscally conservative) Democrats is proving that we can’t simply sit back and let the Democratic Party work its magic. Conservative Democrats are joining Republicans in their attempt to block health care reform, so its up to us keep the pressure on our elected officials.
Visit Health Care For America Now! to let your Representatives and Senators know that we demand a Public Option!
Tell Your Story
Terms we hear in the media like “single payer” and “non-profit cooperatives” can sometimes draw away from the most important aspect of the battle for health care reform – its about people’s real life experiences with illness and the health insurance industry.
People telling their stories makes an enormous impact, not only to legislators, but to other ordinary folks who need a reason to get involved. Blog about it. Vlog about it. Or visit the links below:
