Currently many health insurance companies operate in a wild wild west of little or no rules or regulation - unfettered to cherry pick the healthiest and to deny coverage to those who need it the most.
How do insurance companies do this? They look for "pre-existing conditions" - then they can legally deny someone coverage because they have an imperfect bill of health. Insurers might also charge these individuals much higher premiums for their coverage.
Health insurance shouldn't be reserved only for the healthiest among us.
Make sure John McCain and Barack Obama get this message, and tell them they must include everyone in their plans for quality, affordable health care!
Dear Senator McCain and Senator Obama,
Nearly 50 million Americans have no health insurance at all, while the middle class is getting squeezed by skyrocketing health care costs.
Meanwhile, insurance companies will only cover the healthiest among us, denying people with pre-existing conditions the coverage they need.

I urge you to lead the charge for quality, affordable health care for all Americans, including those with pre-existing conditions.
Sincerely,
[Your name here]
