Fed up with our pain in the a** health care system? We want to hear from you!

April 29th, 2009 by kandriulli

We’re sick and tired of our health care system, and chances are, you are too!

Are you worried about not having health care coverage after you graduate? Do you have a job (or two!) that doesn’t provide health care?  Do you have a horror story about a friend or family member battling the health insurance company to get decent care or coverage? Send us your stories!

We spend billions more than other nations on health care, and yet we still have 46 million uninsured. In his budget proposal, President Obama pledged his commitment to making sure that ALL Americans have access to health care, not just those who can afford it. Budget resolutions in both the House and Senate, which are in the stages of being finalized, have set the stage for reforming our broken health care system and replacing it with quality, affordable health care we all can count on. Read more here about how this process will work.

As the battle for health care reform heats up, our representatives need to hear from real people like you who will benefit from quality health care now. There are a few key states — PA, OR, IA, NE, MT, WY and ME — where we will have to apply more pressure, so if you’re living in or attending school in any of those states, we especially want to hear from you.

If you’re interested in participating, please contact me ASAP at kandriulli@americanprogress.org for more information!
