ACTION ALERT

from Health Care for Health Care Workers

YOUR VOICE IS NEEDED

CALL YOUR MEMBERS OF CONGRESS

Congress is aiming to pass health reform legislation THIS MONTH, and we need to make sure what's passed works for direct-care workers.

So I'm asking you to do two things:

(1) Email your senators and representative right now, and tell them to support coverage that is good for America's 3 million direct-care workers. Find your legislators' contact information.

(2) Call your members of congress tomorrow, Wednesday, July 8, and be a part of the national call-in day organized by Health Care for America Now! Call 1-877-264-HCAN.

Tell them it's time that all direct-care workers in this country have coverage that is:

* Accessible to all individuals regardless of their family status, their employment status, or how many hours a week they work

* Adequate, with a full range of benefits and services to protect older workers, those with chronic health conditions, and injured workers

* Simple, easy to understand and enroll in; and

* Choice, offers consumers a choice of a private or public health insurance plan.

The more real people they hear from, the more we can fight the organized industry opposition that doesn't have the interests of working families at heart.

Thanks for all you do to support direct care workers. What's good for direct care workers will be good for America!

Call 1-877-264-HCAN on Wednesday, July 8!
