Last week, House Democrats killed two provisions that could have given us the best health care in the world: single-payer. But we've still got a chance in the U.S. Senate. Tell your senators to support single-payer health care by co-sponsoring S. 703, the American Health Security Act. Single-payer health care is the only kind that would both control costs and cover all Americans. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi had pledged to hold a House vote on single-payer, but she broke her promise, and did not allow the vote. Even worse, Speaker Pelosi stripped a provision from the health care bill that would have allowed states to try single-payer. As a final insult, the House approved an anti-choice amendment that will remove abortion coverage from millions of health insurance policies. That's just not good enough. Americans deserve a healthcare system that will cover everyone and won't bankrupt anyone. Let's make our voices heard for real health care reform. Sen. Bernie Sanders has introduced S. 703, a bill that would create single-payer systems in every state to cover all Americans. Tell your senators to support true health care reform by co-sponsoring S. 703 today.
