Will the Health Reform Bill Become A Joke?

Joseph Raglione
Gentle readers within this American Chronicle, the "Public Option" is important for honest health care reform within your United States. Without it, your health care bill will become simply a list of rules and regulations easily broken and discarded. History has proven this to be true. The discarded bank regulations leading to the current economic melt down is a good example of political and corporate manipulation; and the E.P.A. transformation from friend to enemy is another. The Environmental Protection Agency became a string puppet for the last Republican government where many E.P.A. rules and regulations were ignored or discarded or simply changed to benefit those in power. Don't let that happen to the health reform bill or the word "reform" will become a joke...>

Joseph -

When we started this fight, some people were skeptical. We drew a line in the sand, and told skeptics that inclusion of a public option was the only way to have affordable healthcare reform. We told them that competition from the choice of a public option would decrease the cost of premiums and increase the quality of service.

We were right.

Join us Wednesday to tell Sen. Bayh that affordable healthcare reform must include a public option

Senator Bayh has repeatedly stated that he wants to see a healthcare bill that reduces the deficit rather than raising it. Over the past few weeks, reports from the Congressional Budget Office have stated that a robust public option tied to Medicare rates would lower the price-tag of healthcare reform by $110 billion.

Even if you can't make it at noon on Wednesday, we need passionate activists like you to let Senator Bayh know we support fiscally responsible healthcare reform. Write to Senator Bayh's office asking him to support a public option that will save us money. Write a letter to editor of your local newspaper to let other people know, too!

The facts are on our side. The people are on our side. Let's get Senator Evan Bayh on our side, too.

Thanks for all of your hard work.
