About this Petition Petition Letter Petition Updates

Healthcare is a human right!! Healthcare should not be a commodity!! Help get Wall Street out of healthcare and make Oregon the second state, after Vermont, to adopt a single payer system. Over 50 million Americans are not insured, tens of millions more are under insured. This is a big problem. 558 Oregonians die every year because they can't afford insurance or the healthcare they need. We can change that. We are the only industrialized country that doesn't have a universal healthcare system, and people are dying everyday because of it. The insurance companies keep raising our premiums, while lowering our benefits and it's not getting any better, it's getting worse. The Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) had some good things in it, but it did not go far enough. Help bring an end to this suffering and bring healthcare to all. We demand a Universal/Single Payer Healthcare system!! Everyone in, nobody out!!
