Wal-Mart ranks #1, among all companies in America, with the highest total number of employees without company health care insurance and is the #1 abuser of taxpayer funded public health care in 18 of the 19 states where statewide data has been reported.
It's time to stop the Wal-Mart health care crisis and make our nation's largest employer pay its fair share for health care. You have the power to stop corporate abuse, hold Wal-Mart accountable and improve health care for millions of workers by sending a letter to your state's Governor.
Help change Wal-Mart and build a better America.
We all pay the price when irresponsible companies like Wal-Mart make billions but refuse to provide affordable health benefits. Our health insurance costs increase, responsible businesses health care costs increase, taxpayers are stuck footing the bill, and our health care providers are squeezed by the massive costs of uncompensated care.
Despite over $11 billion in annual profits, Wal-Mart doesn't pay its fair share for health care. And according to a new analysis, Wal-Mart's health care crisis cost taxpayers an estimated $1.4 billion in 2005 and will cost an estimated $9.1 billion over the next five years. It's wrong, and it must stop.
It's time for you, as an elected leader, to hold large, profitable corporations, like Wal-Mart, accountable in /YOUR STATE/. It's time we say yes to health care for working families and children and no to taxpayers subsidizing multi-billion dollar corporations.
