Keep Speaking Out And We Can Have Single Payer Health Care

This week at Obama's second official press conference he repeated at
least twice that the best way to fix the budget was to reduce health
care costs. And we all know the best way to reduce health care costs
is to implement the vastly more efficient single payer system (HR
676), for which we have long advocated.

Also this week new Senator Jeff Merkley from Oregon stepped up to the
plate to support single payer. We need to thank Senator Merkley, and
continue to speak out so all the others in both the House and Senate
know that this is what the American people want. This is the moment
we can make single payer a reality if we KEEP speaking and encourage
everyone else we know to do the same.

Single Payer Action Page: http://www.peaceteam.net/action/pnum935.php

We'd like to also remind our Facebook participants that all action
pages can be found in their system as well. So let's get all our
Facebook friends in on the activist resource there.

Facebook Version:
http://apps.facebook.com/fb_voices/action.php?qnum=pnum935 (must be a
member of Facebook and logged in to use this link)

And we are working very hard on even more magical new code to expand
the access options for getting a message through to Congress even
further. Please stay tuned and we will have some amazing news for you
shortly.

Please take action NOW, so we can win all victories that are supposed
to be ours, and forward this alert as widely as possible.

If you would like to get alerts like these, you can do so at
