Action Alert from Faithful America
People of faith were instrumental in passing health care reform last year, but our struggle is far from over.
Egged on by the Tea Party, the new Congress has made taking away health care reform its #1 priority -- and we need to step up to protect it.
This Wednesday, the House will vote on a bill repealing health care reform. While this bill is not expected to survive the Senate or President Obama’s veto pen, it’s the first step in a very real campaign to take away health care reform, through funding cuts, legislation and lawsuits.
Let Congress know this is unacceptable. Sign the Petition to Protect Health Care today.
Repeal and funding cuts would take away important protections given to us by the new law, especially for young people and seniors.
Worst of all, putting insurance companies back in charge means going back to the days when insurers could arbitrarily deny coverage, hike up premiums or drop patients from their insurance plans without notice.
With all the pressing issues facing our nation, we don’t have time for our leaders to play political games that takes us backward, not forward.
Sign the Petition to Protect Health Care.
Today our nation honors Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., whose commitment to justice for all people was an inspiration to many of us during the long and often frustrating campaign for health care reform.
As many of us take time to honor King's memory through service, we recommit ourselves to doing all we can to create a nation that more and more resembles his dream.
Thanks for all you do,
Beth, Nick, Dan, Allison, Kristin, John and Jennifer
