National Call In Day for Health Care Reform - July 28th

Help us get 50,000 calls to Congress on July 28th!

The health care reform bill - HR 3200 - being voted on in the House will save you an average of $2800 per year.*

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%.**

Call your Representative today and tell them to stand up for health care.

  • Call 1-888-460-0813 and ask the operator to be connected to your Representative.
  • Once you're connected, please be polite. Ask to talk with someone who can speak to the Representative's position on health care.
  • If the switchboard is busy, you will be able to leave a message for your representative which will be delivered as soon as his or her line is free.
