CCAG Action Alert

Dear Friend,

Passing health care reform will save you money. Not passing it will save millionaires money. Will your Representative choose the millionaires or you?

The health care reform bill being voted on in the House this week will save you an average of $2,800 per year.1 That bill says those who make more than a quarter of a million dollars a year should help pay for reform by rolling back Bush's tax cuts by just 1%.2

Write a LetterThis bill will be voted on in the next few days. Click here to write a letter to your Representative and urge them to pass historic health reform so you can save money.

If you would rather call, please use our toll-free number 1-877-264-HCAN or click here. One of the excuses that some Members of Congress use is that this bill raises taxes on small business. They couldn't be more wrong.

According to the non-partisan Joint Committee on Taxes, 96% of small businesses will have access to more affordable health care under the House bill.3

That's why small business owners all across America are supporting this bill.

Click here to email your Representative and urge them to pass this bill, because your health care is more important enough to ask the wealthy to pay 1% more.

Please use our toll-free number 1-877-264-HCAN or click here to call Congress today. This bill guarantees us quality, affordable health care. It will cover the uninsured and lower the costs for those of us who have insurance. Let's pass this bill, so we can all have quality, affordable health care.

To your health,

Tom Swan, CCAG Executive Director and John Olsen, CT State AFL-CIO President
