One More Day to Make the Call for Health Care Reform

It's not too late to make that phone call and tell your representative in Congress to vote "YES" on America's Affordable Health Choices Act, H.R. 3200.

CWA members across the country, along with activists from other unions and allies, have been making calls all week. There's still time -- through Friday, July 31 -- to make your voice heard before the House of Representatives votes on the landmark legislation, which finally could provide all Americans with affordable, quality health care.

CWA's phone call blitz is one way of countering the powerful deep pockets in the insurance industry and Big Pharma that are fighting real reform. "We don't have the money these groups have, but we know that when we stand together we are every bit as powerful," CWA Executive Vice President Annie Hill said.

Here's what you do: Call toll-free, (888) 580-0792 and follow the prompts for your name, local and zip code. You'll be automatically put through to your representative's office. Tell your member that you support H.R. 3200 because it's the right thing to do, and it meets CWA's priorities for health care reform:

• All employers are required to contribute to their employees' coverage.
• A public insurance plan option.
• Protects retirees, including pre-Medicare retirees.
• No taxes on employer-paid benefits for working and middle class families.
