Congress returns to work next week. So this is our last chance to tell them:
Let’s Get It Done! Enact Health Insurance Reform in 2009!
We’ve beaten back right wing opposition in the last few weeks and emerged with more support for real reform. Now it is time for the final push. Take part in one of the many Let’s Get It Done events all over Pennsylvania. Tell your Representatives and Senators that it is time for action. They must go back to Washington and move health care reform forward. And tell your friends about the Health Insurance Reform campaign and these events by clicking here.
