TV ad exposes vote against reform as vote for insurance companies

On the heels of President Obamas prime time press conference and continued push for comprehensive health care reform, Health Care for America Now (HCAN) and the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) launched a television advertising campaign in eight states,targeting a Senator and seven members of Congress who oppose health care reform legislation. In Washington, Representative Dave G. Reichert (WA-08) is among those targeted.

The ad points out that in voting against reform, the members of Congress would allow health insurance companies to continue to deny people coverage for pre-existing conditions.
