Dear Kathryn, 

At this critical juncture in the fight for health care reform, we need to
put as much pressure as possible on Harry Reid to bring a bill to the floor
of the Senate that includes a public option. 

Already, over 82,626 activists have joined you in telling Reid
<http://act.credoaction.com/r/?r=4948&id=6439-1497326-h.5RoDx&t=4>  not to
let the Baucus bill kill the public option. Can you help us reach 85,000
signers by Monday? 

You <http://act.credoaction.com/r/?r=4953&id=6439-1497326-h.5RoDx&t=5>  can
send an e-mail to your friends and family by clicking here or by forwarding
the e-mail below. 

Thank you for working to building a better world.

We can't sit back and let the public option die 


 

Senate Majority Leader Reid,

 

When you merge the health care bills from the Senate Finance and HELP
committees, make sure the final version includes provisions for a public
health insurance option. Don't let the Baucus bill kill the public option.

Tell <http://act.credoaction.com/r/?r=4948&id=6439-1497326-h.5RoDx&t=8>
Harry Reid: Don't let the Baucus bill kill the public option. 

Dear Kathryn, 

The Senate Finance Committee, led by Senator Max Baucus, passed a health
care reform bill without provisions for a public health insurance option. 

This opened the door to procedural shenanigans that could prevent the public
option from ever being considered on the floor of the Senate, which would
make it much harder for the public option to be included in the final bill
that lands on the president's desk. 

We <http://act.credoaction.com/r/?r=4948&id=6439-1497326-h.5RoDx&t=9>  can't
sit back and let the public option die. Tell Senate Majority Leader Harry
Reid to make sure a public option is included in the health care reform bill
goes to the floor of the Senate. Click here to add your name to our
petition. 

As the Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid will lead a process to merge Max
Baucus' bill with another health care reform bill passed by the Senate HELP
Committee, which does include a public option. The product of this merger
will go to the floor of the Senate for a vote. 

Besides President Obama, there is nobody in a position to effectively oppose
Senator Reid's decision should he choose to include provisions for a public
option. But if Senator Reid does not include a public option in the merged
bill, it will be difficult to insert the public option at a later stage of
the process. 

We have the votes to pass a public option in health care reform. We have to
make sure the public option is not abandoned before a full Senate vote even
takes place. 

Join <http://act.credoaction.com/r/?r=4923&id=6439-1497326-h.5RoDx&t=10>  us
in demanding that Senator Reid keep the public option alive by including the
public option in the bill that comes to the floor of the Senate. Sign our
petition by clicking here. 

Thank you for working to build a better world.
