United Church of Christ Justice & Witness Ministries Action Alert
The Citizens’ Healthcare Working Group is charged by Congress to survey the American public and submit recommendations for congressional action on the nations’ health care needs and a universal health care system. It has published its interim recommendations, which are open to public comment until Aug. 31, 2006, and the final recommendations will be sent to Congress in late September. These interim recommendations do not adequately reflect the overwhelming public support for a universal health care system through which all Americans will receive health care coverage, a comprehensive benefits package, and timely congressional action. Send a message to the Working Group, with copies to Senators Wyden and Hatch, telling the Working Group to more accurately represent the support for a universal health care system.
