Health care reform

Tell Congress your views about health care reform.

In September, Congress will debate health reform legislation. There are a number of health care proposals in the House and Senate. Advocates are calling for reform that would:
  • Cover everyone, regardless of “preexisting conditions”
  • Be affordable
  • Provide all necessary health care
  • Have strong consumer protections
  • Include a realistic plan for limiting overall health care costs
  • Some advocates are calling for health care that wouldn’t be tied to a job, others want to expand and improve job-related coverage.
