Dear AFSCME Brothers and Sisters,
Will your senators
side with retirees and working families or insurance
companies?
Soon you'll know your senators' true
colors — because the fight for real health insurance
reform is coming to a showdown and we'll see full floor votes in
Congress any day now.
Please
call your senators today and demand that they support real
health care reform now. Click
here to make the call.
Today, tens of thousands of people like you are
joining a national call-in day to demand real health care reform
that:
- Controls soaring costs;
- Holds insurance companies accountable;
- Includes a strong public health insurance "option" to lower
costs and make sure everybody can get health care;
- Requires employers to pay their fair share;
- Does not add taxes or other costs for working families;
and
- Improves Medicare benefits and strengthens Medicare's
finances for the future.
This is an historic
opportunity. Opponents of reform are spending millions to derail
health care reform legislation. Congress needs to hear
from real people, not just insurance companies.
Working together, we can rein in insurance
companies so they can't deny coverage or raise costs whenever
they choose. People and their doctors should make health
care decisions — not insurance
companies.
Call
today and tell your senators to support real health reform
— with a public health insurance option, with
no taxes on our health care coverage and with improvements
in Medicare benefits.
In
solidarity,
Steve Regenstreif
Director, AFSCME
Retirees
P.S. We voted for change last November. Now it's
time for Congress to deliver real health care reform. Call
today.
