It's Time to Deliver Health Insurance Reform!!
Call Congress NOW at 1-800-603-SEIU (7348)
This week, hundreds of thousands of people all across the country are calling Congress, sending the message that it's time to deliver on real health insurance reform.
Hundreds of Local 49 members made calls this week, and dozens held signs near the Hawthorne Bridge in Portland to draw attention to the need for health insurance reform.
Right now, everyone is paying for the cost of our broken health care system. People with "pre-existing conditions" are being denied coverage by insurers. Women are being charged 30-51% more than men for the same health insurance policies. Newborn babies are being denied coverage because they're "too fat" or "too small." And a jaw-dropping 44,000 people a year are dying because they lack health insurance. How much longer will Americans need to wait before Congress acts?
The Senate is currently deciding what health care bill to take to
the floor of the Senate. In short, they are deciding what health
insurance reform will mean for you and your family.
Make your voice
heard. CALL 1-800-603-SEIU (7348) to send our message loud and clear: it's time to deliver on health care.
