Tell your Congress Member it's not too late to win single-payer! Attend Town Hall Meetings in August! -- It's the culmination of our national work for healthcare reform, so we must send a message to your member of Congress and Senator:
1. Support single payer in a floor vote in both houses (HR 676/Senate bill 703)
2. Enable states to establish single payer systems – keep the Kucinich amendment as part of the final healthcare reform bill
3. Employee health benefits should not be taxed; employees have given up salary increases to keep quality health benefits

The time is NOW, for single payer universal health care, real healthcare reform.
Posted by barbikins on June 5, 2008 - 1:25pmI cannot help but feel hopeful as we now have a presidential candidate who promises to bring real change to America and give the American people what they want and deserve. A priority for me, and as the polls show and the statistics confirm, for the majority of Americans, is to have a real healthcare system in this country. Healthcare for everyone (universal coverage) that puts medical decisions back into the hands of the caregivers and takes the profit out of adminstrating a needed service (single payer system) and one that is humane and compassionate, emphasising wellness, prevention and equality of care across the spectrum of birth to death. Healthcare that is inclusive of dental, vision, hearing and mental health, recognizing that the body is a whole and that society is a whole and that sickness that affects a part jeopardizes the wellness and viabiliity of the whole.
