Declare Your Independence!

Tell your Congressperson you want the freedom to choose your health care plan!

 

Congress is in recess for the Fourth of July weekend, which makes it a perfect time to call your Congressperson's local office!

Easy Steps to take:

* Find your Congressperson's local number here.


* Tell your Congressperson that you want the choice between your existing health care plan, picking another private plan or choosing a affordable, quality public option.

 

The shape of health care reform is being decided in Washington, D.C. right now. There is no more time to wait! Unless you act, we will lose this fight!

Bookmark our Action Center page and check back often for new ways that you can help to win real health care reform this year!
