America’s Children Still Need Health Reform.
As Oregon celebrates our victories, we must not lose sight of our national reform efforts. We have proven what kind of success we can have when we come together as a state. Now we must come together as a country because America’s children are counting on us.
The recent election in Massachusetts hasn’t changed the fact that more than eight million children nationwide lack health coverage. And it doesn’t mean that we stop fighting for them.
Now is the crucial time. Without a House vote on the Senate-passed health bill, families will not see comprehensive health reform this year. Your voice can make the difference.
Tell your U.S. Representative to support health reform, because doing nothing is not an answer. Nor will piecemeal fixes later on change the game. Families face skyrocketing health costs and slashed budgets for state health services, even as unemployment remains high. Only the comprehensive approach of the health reform bill can fix the system for working families and vulnerable communities.
Call your representatives toll-free at 1-866-277-7617 and tell them:
Children and families need comprehensive health care reform NOW.
