Join tens of thousands of health care advocates telling Congress that health reform can’t wait. Ask your Representative to support the House health care bill (H.R. 3200) today!

The opposition is pulling out all the stops to block health care reform that meets the needs of women and their families. We need your help to fight back today.

The House bill (H.R. 3200) will provide quality, affordable, and comprehensive health care. The bill will:

End unfair and discriminatory insurance industry practices such as gender rating — when women are charged higher premiums than men simply because they are women — and pre-existing condition exclusions;
Provide affordable coverage;
Ensure that medical experts — not Congress — decide what's in a comprehensive health package, including whether to cover abortion and other reproductive health care; and
Help lower costs for those of us who have insurance.
And it is paid for fairly and responsibly.

With 14,000 Americans becoming uninsured every day, with three out of five women saying they cannot pay their medical bills, and with more women than men saying they skip medical care because they cannot afford it, there is no more critical time than today to make your voice heard. Urge your U.S. Representative to support the House health care bill (H.R. 3200).

Thank you for continuing to fight with us for health care reform that meets the needs of women and their families.

Best wishes,

Judy Waxman
Vice President for Health and Reproductive Rights
