Action: Mothers' Day Health Care Rumpus!!!!!

It is time to tackle the Senate and this is a start:  please join the Mothers' Day Health Care Rumpus! You do not have to be a mother to join and your Senator does not have to be a mother to get  cards.  Five easy steps to a big impact:


1.)  Buy or make some Mothers' Day cards tomorrow or the next day


2.) In the cards, write polite messages to your Senators that they must not support a health care bill that does not protect people with chronic illnesses and disabilities and they must not pass a health care bill that includes any of the elements of the draconian MacArthur Amendment in the House Bill:

• There must be no waivers to states from providing essential services (such as medication or care for chronic illnesses)
• No allowing states to charge people with pre-existing conditions more for health insurance
• No waivers redefining essential services and thus allowing annual limits 
• No waivers redefining essential services and thus allowing lifetime limits

3.) Be sure to send at least one card to each of your U.S. Senators by Wednesday (Monday or Tuesday are great too) - don't forget stamps!


4.) Document your action on social media at #MothersDayHealthCareRumpus

5.) Share this information about the Rumpus far and wide (you may need to copy and paste the link) and let us make a wild, thumping noise about saving our children's health care!
