Single Payer... FREE FAX the Finance Committee!!!!!!!!

THE FINANCE COMMITTEE MUST NOT EXCLUDE MEDICARE FOR ALL
Dear Senator _______:

I am writing to you concerning the upcoming Senate Finance Committee roundtable discussions on healthcare reform being held on May 12th.

It is important to Americans that these discussions include all healthcare reform points of view. I was disappointed and even angered at the contemptuous way in which single payer advocates were treated during the session on May 5th. I hope that you will accord those who advocate Medicare For All as much respect as the obviously more powerful representatives of the insurance industry.

The majority of Americans and physicians support a national health insurance program built on the principles of Medicare For All. We may not have the money of the insurance industry, but ultimately we have the votes and we are your employer. This is an example of why we elected you – to do what is best the public good, not to cater to the private interests of the insurance industry.

Please invite a representative from Physicians for a National Health Program or the California Nurses Association to the roundtable discussion on May 12th. You can call PNHP at 312-782-6006 or email them at info@pnhp.org. You can call CNA at 510-273-2200 or email them at govrelations@calnurses.org.



Sincerely,



eFAX YOUR SENATOR TO INCLUDE SINGLE-PAYER IN THE FINANCE COMITTEE ROUNDTABLE DISCUSSIONS
Select your Senator and fill out the following form to send this letter and your comments as a free fax. If your senator isn't a member of the Finance Committee, send your fax to Senator Baucus. A copy of your fax will go to the White House, too.

We respect your privacy. We will not sell, rent or distribute your name and email address without your permission. You will receive an email allowing you to you opt out of future contact from Health Justice.
