Get Public Option Right #hcr #politics

Do your part. We get the government and policies we are willing to, or lack to, fight for. Government is not the problem, citizen’s disinterest and apathy is. We are the government.

President Obama gave Senate Democrats a healthcare "pep talk" at the Capitol this weekend. He also gave them a clear message: Get it done. But Americans have something to add to the President’s message: Get it right. Real healthcare reform must include the choice of a public option. But Insurance Industry Democrats are working on a new "compromise" to destroy the public option. We’re done negotiating. The public option in the current Senate bill is our final compromise. It’s time Senate Democrats stop negotiating with defeat and reject all amendments that weaken the public option. Call your Senators right now and make sure they get the message: No triggers. No co-ops. No amendments that weaken the public option. Senate switchboard: (202) 224-3121 Click here to report your call: DemocracyForAmerica.com/GetItRight It doesn’t matter if you’ve called before or if your Senators are Republicans or Insurance Industry Democrats. Even big insurance sell-outs need to get our message. Whether it takes just one call or all of us working together, when they get calls supporting a public option it weakens their commitment to speak out or stand up against us. And even if your Senators are public option champions, you need to call today. Healthcare Heroes like Senators Bernie Sanders and Sherrod Brown need to know we’re depending on them to not back down. Call your Senators today and tell them where you stand: America stands with Healthcare Heroes who fight for a public option, not Insurance Industry Senators who care more about the insurance interests who fund their campaigns than providing every American real healthcare reform. We’re done negotiating. Enough is enough. The public option in the current Senate bill is our final compromise. TELL US HOW YOUR CALL WENT Don’t let a handful of Insurance Industry Democrats screw this up. Call your Senators today. Thank you for everything you do, -Charles Charles Chamberlain, Political Director Democracy for America P.S.
