Quit the Bickering! Give the U.S. Real Health Insurance Reform
- por: SEIU
- destinatário: Republican Members of Congress
Just the other week, President Obama delivered a historic address to a joint session of Congress. In it, he laid out a clear, detailed vision for health insurance reform and a concrete plan to get it done. He even extended a hand to Republicans in Congress, asking for their help to forge a bipartisan approach to solving the health care crisis.
Their response? More personal attacks. Instead of engaging in legitimate debate about the President's plan, they attacked his character. Republican Congressman Joe Wilson went so far as to yell at the President in the middle of his address - calling him a liar.
The Republican Party has hit rock bottom. They're out of ideas, out of support, and they're resorting to temper tantrums in the cradle of our democracy.
Will you help turn the conversation back to the things that really matter? Tell Republicans in Congress to quit bickering, quit playing political games, and start working toward real health insurance reform.
Dear Congressmember [Name],
The health care crisis is one of the most serious, pressing concerns facing our country. Such an important issue deserves immediate action punctuated only by legitimate debate.
Instead, some Republicans in Congress have used this moment as a last ditch effort to attack President Obama and the millions of us who support real health insurance reform.
Stop the political gamesmanship. Stop the yelling, the name calling, and the fear mongering.
Instead, do the job you were elected to do; work with the President to achieve his vision of quality, affordable health care for every American.
