(http://www.familiesusa.org/) Dear Dana Wray, (http://ga3.org/ct/r7SxI371KYgk/) Our brand new Stand Up for Health Care website is already making a big splash. Thousands of people have visited the site to learn about the health care crisis and take action in support of guaranteed quality, affordable health care for all. Together, we're going to make a major impact on the national health care debate. But that will only happen if activists like you continue to come together to make a strong, united call for real health care reform. You can do your part by signing our petition to John McCain and Barack Obama. The petition sends a clear message that the American people will hold the candidates accountable for improving our nation's health care system so that no one is left out. Stand Up for Health Care by signing our petition right now: _http://www.standupforhealthcare.org/signthepetition_ (http://ga3.org/ct/r7SxI371KYgk/) Looking at the comments from the thousands of petition signers so far, I got a strong reminder of why this issue is so important for all Americans. Here's what some of our supporters had to say:
"Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness" - these are fundamental principles which form the basis of our Constitution. All of these aims are dependent on access to affordable health care. -- William from Arizona We need better health care for our citizens. I'm one of the lucky ones. As a teacher I have good benefits. But many of my students and their families aren't so lucky, and can't get the treatment that they need. -- Meredith from Pennsylvania Because one is not in perfect health is no reason to deny health insurance. After all, health insurance is for when you are sick and in need of it! -- Jack from Oregon Adequate, affordable health care should be a civil right, guaranteed to all residents of the United States. It is criminal that insurance companies can cherry pick who they cover and what services they feel like paying for. The frequency of bankrupcy caused by health care expenses is appalling. I expect whoever wins the presidency to make health care a priority!!! -- Carol from Pennsylvania Join William, Meredith, Jack, Carol and thousands of others by adding your name to our petition for quality, affordable health care for all: _http://www.standupforhealthcare.org/signthepetition_ (http://ga3.org/ct/r7SxI371KYgk/) The movement for health care reform has been growing for years, and now the time has finally come to get real results. Thank you for being part of this effort. Sincerely, Julia Eisman eAdvocacy Coordinator p.s. Special note to our longtime Health Action advocates: We hope you'll find the Stand Up For Health Care project exciting, but it’s important to mention that you will still receive the same legislative and policy Health Action alerts that you are accustomed to. ____________________________________ Visit the web address below to tell your friends to Stand Up for Health Care! _Tell-a-friend!_ (http://ga3.org/join-forward.html?domain=familiesusa&r=D7SxI37qvkc8) If you received this message from a friend, you can _sign up for Families USA_ (http://ga3.org/familiesusa/join.html?r=D7SxI37qvkc8E) .
