ACTION ALERT! Call Blue Dog Dems In California Who Threaten To Derail Health Care Reform!
We have three Blue Dog Democrats right here in California who signed on to join forces with Republicans against health care reform. We need to let them know that this is unacceptable.
Call them now. Tell them that Health Care is a basic human right. And that we will settle for nothing less than a strong public option that’s available to ALL Americans on Day One, accountable to Congress, and which can bargain for lower rates with drug companies and providers.

*Great news! Rep. Adam Schiff is now on record as supporting a public option! A statement from his office:
Rep. Schiff has favored a robust public option for some time now, and in fact, has written House leadership to express his support for the inclusion of a public option which has access to the Medicare provider network. Rep. Schiff believes that a strong public option will provide significant cost-savings and is an essential piece of any comprehensive health care reform bill.
