Sometimes, it takes Washington a little longer to get on the same page.
But, with the President's speech just now, and the movement in Congress over the past 48 hours, it's clear we now have all the pieces in place to move on real health insurance reform.
Let's go. We've talked about this for years, we've been debating it for months - now let's get it done.
Last month, our opponents took their turn in front of the TV cameras. They yelled and protested, but when they were faced with the tough questions, they had no answers - nothing real to contribute.
This is OUR month. We have a plan; we have real solutions to this health care crisis. And it's time to ask each and every member of Congress whether they're in or out.
Use our toll free number to make the call: 1-866-311-3405
Right now, pick up your phone and call your member of Congress. Tell them we need to know whether they're going to help us pass health insurance reform or whether they're going to help our opponents drag their feet.
We cannot afford to keep waiting for solutions to the health care crisis - we have a solution. And we will not wait one day longer to act.
Call your member of Congress right now and tell them to get it done: 1-866-311-3405
Thanks,

Everyone is hungry for specifics about Obama's stand on major elements of the package.The president, admired the world over for his oratory, has struggled to find the right message on health care.Supporters say it would give people secure benefits like those older Americans get through Medicare, while leaving medical decisions to doctors and patients.Carnegie Mellon University has a great new marketing tool when they came up with the Death Risk Rankings. The Death Risk Rankings are fairly scientific, as the death calculator analyzes statistics and medical questions as well as taking where a person lives into account as well. Their website, at deathrickrankings.com can give you an estimate on whether or not a person will be kicking the bucket in the next year or two. It's a lot more scientific than other death calculator tools that just say a person will get attacked by rabid cannibal squirrels. A person can determine their death risk rankings without needing to get fast cash to find out – but it's only a prediction.
I wonder what is really going on with healthcare reform? SEIU Healthcare is actively Lobbying in Washington DC for Healthcare reform.
My company called and told me I would beremoved from my clients home (the same as being fired) if I did not join SEIU Union, When I called the Recourse Center I was told I Would be fired for not joining SEIU. (without first advising me of my Beck Hudson and General motors rights.) The rest of the Employees Who were threatened Joined SEIU under duress Fearing for their Jobs. I filed a charge against SEIU with the National Labor Relations Board, SEIU was found guilty of unfair Labor Practices! SEIU We need you to protect the workers from Unfair labor Practices.
Our Bargaining unit (150 Employees) have no knowledge of their contract being Ratified,They are being told 2 Different stories as to how it was Ratified,
1) Ratified at an International level.(Marria) Rep.
2nd by mailed ballots. (Tyler Skillings) Resourse manager.
The bargaining Unit was never given opportunity to vote on the Contract, worse yet most employees have never seen the contract.
We do not have Organized Union meetings that take place outside of our work where we can speak freely without fear of retaliation. we have No trained shop Steward, Basically ZERO representation! Employees can only call SEIU long distance. Not affective.. The Resource center can not take the place of regular meetings as a means to Provide Employee Reresentation.
I called Pat Dejong a fellow Employee, who went to Lobby in Washington DC. with SEIU . Pat HUNG UP ON ME for asking Questions.
(we are being told Pat will be the Host. and a Shop steward) We have better Qualified people in our bargaining unit for These Leadership roles.
I am asking SEIU to Respond to the People they claim to represent With open Honest communication and problem resolution.
