Send Congress a Message -- Send Your Bills -- Demand Action
Leadership Conference for Guaranteed Health Care
4th National Call-In Day and Fax your Health Insurance Bills to
Congress!
Dear Single-Payer Supporters:
As the new administration takes on the giant task of reforming
health care, the Leadership Conference for Guaranteed Health Care
must continue to keep up the heat in support of meaningful reform
and the tremendous momentum for the only plan proven to work:
Expanded and Improved Medicare for All.
So on March 10th, 2009, we will host a deluge of activity in support
of HR 676.
The American Health Insurance Plans (AHIP), the trade group that
develops the policies that keep profit first in our health care system
while leaving over a third of the population uninsured or with
completely inadequate coverage, is hosting a conference at the Ritz
Carlton in Washington, D.C. Activists will meet at 11 a.m. to
demonstrate outside of the conference and point the finger at the
connection between AHIP profits, our health care non-system, and
the huge campaign contributions AHIP members give to our elected
officials. If you are in D.C., join us at 11 a.m. on March 10th to say
"Health Insurance NO! Health Care YES!"
In addition to getting out in the street, we plan to flood phone
and fax machines in Congress demanding support of HR 676.
We ask that you join with thousands of others to call Congress
and also fax your health insurance bill or letter of denial to
Congress and the new Secretary-Designate of Health and Human
Services, Kathleen Sebelius. Links below will take you to fax cover
sheets to get the message through that AHIP policies have left
our health care decimated and are no longer acceptable to the
American people. One cover sheet is to accompany your health
insurance bill, and the second will be for those who support
single-payer and currently receive Medicare.
