The new health reform law is a big step toward covering our nation's uninsured and ending our large health care disparity by adding 32 million more people to health care insurance. It takes a big step toward changing our health care system from one that supports "sick" care to one that promotes "health." And it gives real teeth to ending corruption and fraud in the system by funding federal fraud investigations while promoting and funding systems that help to improve the quality of care. It helps us fight rising costs by giving states grants to fight unreasonable premium increases. It is paid for and helps to decrease the deficit by 230 billion. The health care reforms of ending discrimination against pre-existing conditions, resending health care policies for being sick, and keeping children on existing health care policies until they are 26 are all widely popular - polling as high as 70-80% of the American people supporting these reforms.
Stand on the side of preserving this major step toward health care reform!
Hope to see you there.
