It's not too late!

From Margaret Flowers, M.D.

It's not too late to call! The managers' amendment that can put the
Kucinich amendment back into the legislation has not been released.
Members of Congress have received many phone calls. The push for single
payer is working. Please keep it up and call now!

We have 2 requests:

1. Keep the Kucinich amendment in HR 3269! The Kucinich amendment makes
changes to ERISA law that make it possible for states to pass single
payer and not have it challenged on the basis of ERISA.

2. Keep the promise and let the Weiner amendment come to the floor of
the house for a debate and vote. See the video of this at:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H0fA2DfwFn4&feature=related. This will be
the first time that single payer has come to a vote in the House. It is
historic and we don't want to lose this opportunity.

Call:
Speaker Pelosi at 202-225-4965
Majority Leader Hoyer at 202-225-4131
Chairman Waxman at 202-225-3976

THANK YOU!
Onward to single payer.
And don't forget to support the campaign at www.mobilizeforhealthcare.org.

Margaret Flowers, M.D.
