Tell President Obama and Congress: Health care should not be a privilege for the wealthy and the lucky. And health care reform should not be written by the private insurance lobby. We need real reform for real people, and it MUST include a public option.

It's official: most Americans want a public option healthcare plan. Barack Obama actually has the political capital to make it a reality. So why is it that so many Democrats, their tails tucked firmly between their legs, have set about undermining it?

It would cost each American less than 15 cents a day to provide nine million uninsured children with vision, dental and mental health coverage. Lack of proper healthcare is a serious problem, but if we put our minds to it, there are solutions within reach

Tell Senator Max Baucus that while we appreciate a private meeting for single payer, that is not good enough. Single payer needs to be on the table, because with fair consideration single payer will be the health care plan adopted by the nation.

Each year, 20,000 Americans die from lack of access to healthcare. Almost 50 million people in this country have no insurance. With unemployment skyrocketing and costs continuing to spiral upwards, things will only get worse for us. This is unacceptable.

Health care is a human right. It is not a product that an insurance company should be profiting from. Please support a single payer, national health insurance plan that includes all Americans and leaves nobody out. We need expanded Medicare for all.
