About this Petition Petition Letter

   Polling data repeatedly shows that over 60% of the American people support an expanded government role in health care that would guarantee coverage for every American.  In a TRUE democracy, that means the people's choice wins, not the insurance lobbyists and their deep pockets!!!!!!

But the Administration and Congress have turned away. They have heard and seen, but havent paid attention. They are rolling out a shameful basket of reforms that will cost us all a bundle, but won't guarantee access to health care for everyone in the United States; Wont stop thousands from dying every year because they didnt get the care they needed; DEFINITELY Won't end insurance company denials of needed care, and profiteering from health care; won't end medical-related bankruptcy; ABSOLUTELY won't contain the skyrocketing costs of health care. So, where is the reform?

We, The people are asking that the CBO score and cost out single payer legislation (HR 676; S 703), and compare it to their scoring and costing of the new legislation now coming out of their committees.
Also, that single payer experts be included in ALL Committee hearings on health care reform. We, the people,
INSIST on The National Health Care Act, HR 676!!!!
