Organizing For America’s Health Care Email
Friend –
As we speak, key committees in Congress are weighing options and making final decisions about how to tackle health care reform. This could be one of the last opportunities to shape the legislation before it’s written.
The behind-the-scenes committee negotiations aren’t front-page news, but the lobbyists trying to block reform are following every detail, and they won’t miss a day. If the final plan is to uphold President Obama’s principles of reduced costs, guaranteed choice — including a robust public insurance option — and quality care for all, your voice must be heard.
Please call your representatives right now and ask them to support President Obama’s three principles for real health care reform. Our records show that you live in New York’s 25th congressional district. Please call:
Rep. Dan Maffei at 202-225-3701
Senior Senator Chuck Schumer at 202-224-6542
Junior Senator Kirsten Gillibrand at 202-224-4451

These calls are an easy but powerful way to make a difference. Just tell whoever answers the phone that you’re a constituent (mention what city you’re calling from), and that you’re counting on your representative to support real health care reform, which must:
* Reduce costs
* Guarantee a choice of plans and doctors — including the choice of a robust public insurance option
*Ensure quality, affordable care for every American
The opponents of real reform have deep pockets and insider access, and they’re holding nothing back in their drive to derail progress before the plans go public.
Your call, right now, can help remind your representatives that the American people are counting on them to stand up to the special interests and deliver the comprehensive reform we so desperately need.
Thanks for all that you do,
Mitch
