THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT / OBAMACARE IS HERE TO STAY...TELL THE REPIGLICANS & TEA-BAGGERS TO KEEP THEIR HANDS OFF!!!! 28JUN12

THE ink is barely dry on the Supreme Court's decision on the Affordable Care Act / Obamacare and the repiglican / tea-bagger members of Congress along with their presidential candidate mitt romney are pledging it's repeal. Health Care For America Now needs us to sign their petition telling them Obamacare is here to stay and to keep their hands off the Affordable Care Act. Click the link to sign on, and you can add your own comments to the letter to your Representative (see my letter to Rep frank wolf r VA at the bottom of this post)

 

Obamacare has been upheld.

The Supreme Court says Obamacare is constitutional but the Republicans in Congress still want to repeal it!
Tell the Republicans in Congress to stop playing politics with our health care.
Today, the Supreme Court ruled that the debate over the Affordable Care Act is done. Obamacare is here to stay. The days of health insurance company price-gouging and denials of care are over.
This ruling clears the way for moving full steam ahead on implementing Obamacare. Thanks to this law, working and middle-class families will have financial and health security. More than 30 million Americans will gain insurance coverage for the first time, joining more than 100 million who are already benefiting from the law’s consumer protections and benefits.
The Republicans have already pledged to continue their relentless campaign to undermine the health care security of America’s families. They want to end Medicare as we know it, dismantle Medicaid and repeal Obamacare, including the ban on discriminating against people with pre-existing conditions
Please join us in telling Congress: “The debate is over. Stop playing politics and follow the law.”

Thank you,
Will O'Neill

MY letter to Rep frank wolf r VA
Unless you plan to offer the American public the exact same health care plan you have as a member of Congress at the same cost you pay (the taxpayer subsidized rate) I expect you to keep your hands off the Affordable Care Act! The Supreme Court has ruled: Obamcare is here to stay. This is good for all Americans because
Insurance companies still must provide insurance to children who have pre-existing conditions,
There are no long lifetime caps to coverage,
Adult children will still be able to get insurance through their parents,
Coverage has been expanded for 30 million people,
No costs to consumers for preventative care,
No one will be denied for have a pre-existing condition,
Medicaid will be expanded to people with incomes up to 133% above poverty,
Health insurance exchanges will drive down the cost of private insurance.

This ruling clears the way for moving full steam ahead on implementing Obamacare. Thanks to this law, working and middle-class families will have financial and health security. More than 30 million Americans will gain insurance coverage for the first time, joining more than 100 million who are already benefiting from the laws consumer protections and benefits.

President Obama worked with Congress for more than a year to pass the Affordable Care Act, and even now many of the consumer protections have yet to go into effect. The American people do not have time for Congress to continue playing politics with health care.

You and the Republican Party should side with the seniors, families, and small businesses in your district, not the profit-seeking health insurance companies.
