When the ACA began, do you remember how relieved we were when “pre-existing conditions” became a thing of a dark and heartless past?

The Senate is trying to do what the House did in May: jam through its TrumpCare bill in secrecy, without public hearings, without a Congressional Budget Office (CBO) score, and without knowing its full impact on American families.  Let our Senators know that we expect them to not only vote against this bill, but to speak out against it to the media, and on the floor of the Senate.

This bill is a con game to make us believe that malpractice insurance is a major expense of our healthcare system, when in fact, it is only 0.5-1% of all medical costs. Losers of this game will be patient protections against malpractice and medical error. It limits non-economic damages to $250,000, shortens the statute of limitations and bans class action lawsuits against doctors prescribing FDA-approved drugs or medical devices that cause harm. Winners will be pharmaceutical firms who’ll minimize damages for under-tested drugs and their well-paid army of lobbyists.

Script: I’m calling to ask Rep. (___) to vote “NO” on HR 1215, the Protecting Access to Care Act of 2017. Reducing healthcare spending is an admirable policy goal, but it should not be achieved by eroding people’s legal protections against medical malpractice while shielding pharmaceutical companies from lawsuits over hastily-approved drugs.

Rep. Brownley (CA-26): DC (202) 225-5811, Oxnard (805) 379-1779, T.O. (805) 379-1779

Rep. Carbajal (CA-24): DC (202) 225-3601, SB (805) 730-1710 SLO (805) 546-8348

Stop TrumpCare in the Senate – 3 Week Call Challenge!

(From Senator Kirsten Gillibrand):
Sen. McCaskill is up for reelection next year, and when women stand strong and speak out, Republicans attack. They’ve already launched sexist attacks saying she was “ranting and raving.” Millions of dollars will be directed into defeating and silencing her.    Continue reading “Day 2, Healthcare Warriors!” →

The Senate GOP plans on stripping health insurance away from 2.5 million Californians. People will die from this. Others will lose everything in medical bankruptcies. We can stop this. Now.

The Healthy California Act (SB 562) has passed the CA Senate and is on its way to the Assembly.  We are a step closer to guaranteeing health care for all Californians.
Hannah-Beth Jackson voted YES, with encouragement from your calls.  Let’s ask Assemblymember Monique Limón for her support too as the bill is now in the Assembly. The “Amherst Study” cited below shows that it can be done.

Script (Limón):  I’m calling today to ask you to support SB 562, the Healthy California Act.  Now is the time for bold action to ensure that Californians have access to affordable and quality health care.The “Amherst Study” proves it can be done.
