The Answer Is No
Dear Elyssa:
Yesterday, you called your Senators and asked them to pass the economic recovery package and retain its health care provisions. Collectively, you made hundreds of calls in less than 24 hours! But from the feedback I've received from you, it's clear that the phone lines are jammed, mostly with Rush Limbaugh fanatics urging a "no" vote.
We need to take this battle to the next level if we want to ensure health care is included in the economic recovery package - and that this package passes at all.
Can you write a letter to your Senators? We're going to print out every letter you write and hand deliver them to Senate offices to make sure your voice is heard.
We've gotten word that Senators on Capitol Hill are working to gut the health care provisions in President Obama's economic recovery plan.
Meanwhile, people all over the country are losing their jobs and their health care. These people desperately need the protections in the economic recovery package that help them retain their family's health insurance. And the entire country needs this bill to pass so we can create jobs and start turning our economy around.
Click to write a letter to your Senators now! We'll hand deliver your message to their offices.
I know I just reached out to you yesterday, but this is urgent! The fate of not only the health care provisions, but the entire economic recovery package is in jeopardy.
Please take a moment to write a letter to your Senators so we can hand deliver them and make sure your voice is heard!
Thank you for all that you do.
To your health,
Levana
