It's now or never for health care reform: The House and Senate have passed health care reform measures, but now they have to hammer out a final bill they all can agree on. We have to keep the pressure on to ensure that the final version will help, not hurt, working families.

Today, Wednesday, Jan. 13th, please join the Transport Workers Union and other AFL-CIO affiliates in “blitzing” for Health Care Reform!

Join your union brothers and sisters today and CLICK-TO-CALL your senator or congressional representative and urge them to ONLY support health care legislation that:

• Does NOT TAX our healthcare benefits
• Requires employers to pay their fair share
• And includes a public health care option

Please let them know that any tax on our middle class health benefits is unacceptable!

We are weeks away from a final bill that merges the versions passed by the House and Senate. Both bills greatly increase the number of people who will have health care coverage and end some of the most egregious insurance company abuses. But the bill passed by the House is far better for working families – and now is our time to tell representatives to stick to their guns and vote for health care reform that will make a true difference for working families.

The Senate bill is badly flawed. It would tax middle-class health care benefits, allow employers to escape responsibility for paying a fair share and does not include a public health insurance option to reduce costs and hold insurers accountable.

We’re down to our final opportunities to make sure that health care reform passed this year works for us so CLICK-TO-CALL now and make your voice heard.
