Kennedy's Legacy: Support the Public Option

What we've lost.

59-40.

Only reconciliation can save the public option now.

Reconciliation and us.

Subject: Sign On to the Public Option Resolution

Dear Friend,

Can you call on your local Democratic Party and other local groups to adopt the Public Option Resolution demanding inclusion of a strong public health insurance option in any health care bill passed this year?

A whopping 76% of voters want health insurance reform to include the choice of a Public Option. In the words of President Obama, the choice of a Public Option will, "keep the insurance companies honest."

So the insurance companies and right wing are fighting tooth and nail to get Democrats to cave on the public option and vote for fake reform like a "trigger" or co-opts. We can't let Democrats capitulate, we need to support Democrats only passing a bill with a strong public option.

Public Option Resolution.

That is why bloggers like FireDogLake have joined forces with CREDO Action and Democracy for America to pass Public Option Resolutions at local political groups across the country.

Please join us and forward this email to your friends, chances are they are part of the 76% of Americans who want Democrats to be resolved for a Public Option.

Public Option Resolution.
