Wrapping Up The #MothersDayHealthCareRumpus

 Hello, Mamas!

There is not much of May left and we need to get more Mothers' Day cards about health care out to our Senators!

Please participate in the #MothersDayHealthCareRumpus:


1.)  Buy or make some Mothers' Day cards.

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 during the month of May.

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

5.) Share this information about the Rumpus far and wide and let us make a wild, thumping noise about saving our children's health care!
