Dozens Arrested Protesting for Health Care Reform. Add Your Voice!

The insurance companies are spending millions to confuse and scare the public in order to keep their grip on our health and our money.  The insurance industry trade lobby, America's Health Insurance Plans (AHIP) released a report that claims the Senate Finance Committee's version of health care reform legislation would raise average family premiums to $21,300.  They want us to fear any change so they can continue paying millions of dollars to their CEOs while they routinely deny care and raise premiums.

Meanwhile, each year more than 45,000 people die because they can't get the care they need. That's more than 120 deaths every day. 

Yesterday, in nine cities across the country, people staged sit-ins at health insurance offices to call for real reform that addresses the real cause of the health care crisis.  The actions were a part of a national day of action coordinated by the group Mobilization for Health Care for All. 

Add your voice to theirs!  Demand that insurance giant United Health Group publicly commit to approve all doctor-recommended treatment for people with life-threatening conditions.
