Call NOW to Keep Single Payer Alive

As you probably know, health care reform is making its way through Congress. This week, the House of Representatives introduced their health care reform bill. The bill is strong in many ways, but two single-payer amendments that were promised a vote this fall were not in it. The House leadership still has the power to change that.

One of the amendments, introduced by Rep. Dennis Kucinich, would allow states to implement state-wide single-payer systems. The other, by Rep. Anthony Weiner, would call for a vote on national single-payer legislation for the first time in history.

We need your voice to get these amendments back on the table. Call:

  • Speaker Nancy Pelosi: DC (202) 225-4965 or SF (415) 556-4862
  • Rep. George Miller: DC (202) 225-2095 or Concord (925) 602-1880
  • Rep. Henry Waxman: DC (202) 225-3976 or LA (323) 651-1040
  • The message is simple: Keep the Kucinich Amendment to allow states to pass single-payer, and allow Rep. Anthony Weiner introduce his single-payer amendment!
