HR 676 Week of Action: APRIL 18 - 25. Plan an Event, or Join in One Near You!
April 09, 2009.
Dear fellow Americans,
The health care insurance corporations --who have bouht access to elected officials through generous campaign contributions--have secured their place at the health care reform table. But, the majority of Americans and health care providers who support single-payer health care, along with the 500+ local labor unions, the 40 cities and towns and the Conference of Mayors and other endorsers and activists, have been shut out of the debate.
That's why PDA is sponsoring a week of actions promoting HR 676, the single-payer solution! Click here for a listing of their events. If you don’t find one near you, let them know what you plan to do in your community.
Order professionally printed flyers to distribute, for just the cost of shipping!
PDA remains committed to the single-payer solution. The HCAN plan, which many others are buying into, is not a single-payer plan nor will it lead to single-payer healthcare-- just more profits for healthcare corporations and their wealthy CEOs. It’s a government give-away of our hard-earned money. It will leave many Americans uninsured, and it will not contain costs in the same way the single-payer solution will.
Single-payer health care is among our founding issues and PDA will continue to push for it inside and outside the beltway. Health care corporations exist to make profits for their shareholders, not to provide health care; as long as they are part of the equation, real reform will elude us.
(Don't forget to order flyers!)
Tell your member of Congress to co-sponsor HR 676, the one solution that will provide health care for all, provide savings and truly reform the health care system in the U.S. Click here.
PDA will never say die when it comes to the health and welfare of Americans.
In solidarity,
Tim Carpenter

Live your values. Love your country.
And, remember: TOGETHER, We can make a DIFFERENCE!

If you don't like a particular TV program, you call their sponsors
and tell them you will boycott them until the program either goes
off the air or changes to your liking. This works similar with
political parties, politicians and their sponsors (campaign contributors).
Read and sign these legislative petitions please and
get hundreds of people to sign them and they will
automatically go to Republican minority leaders
Sen. McConnell and Rep. Boehner.
