Karen,
BREAKING news: At 10am, the White House released a new health care proposal
in advance of Thursday's "bipartisan summit."
It doesn't include the public health insurance option...even though that's
what has broad support in the country.
Can you help us get 100,000 signatures on this message to Congress by Thurs
day?
"Americans want a good health care bill with a public option, even if it pa
sses with only Democratic votes. We would rather have a good bill than a bi
partisan one."
Sign the statement here -- then pass it to your friends.<http://act.boldpro
gressives.org/go/431?akid=428.221726.wGrmRw&t=2>
Today, we are releasing this statement -- along with new polling data that
proves it is true -- to the media and Congress. We'll keep them informed ea
ch day as our number of signatures grows.
Along with Democracy for America and Credo Action, we hired a professional
firm to poll the states of key senators -- Harry Reid, Dick Durbin, Claire
McCaskill, and others.
In state after state, voters said they would rather "pass health care refor
m that includes a public health insurance option but gets zero Republican v
otes" than "pass health care reform without a public option but with some R
epublican votes."
Click here to see the (hot) new polling data -- and sign your name to the s
tatement.<http://act.boldprogressives.org/go/431?akid=428.221726.wGrmRw&t

Then, please pass this to your friends.
Thanks for being a bold progressive.
