A citizens health insurance reform alliance formed to promote the successful passage of:
People often ask "I'm just one person, how can I possibly make a difference?" If you're one of those people, here's your answer...
There is now a bill in Congress, H.R. 676 that offers a new and exciting way for you and your fellow citizens to work together and help make the dream of affordable health insurance for every American a reality. According to the World Health Organization, the US is ranked 37th in the world in providing adequate health care services to its citizens. Most Americans would agree that this is simply not acceptable and has to change. For more information visit HR676.org
Mission Statement
Health Insurance Reform… we’ve been talking about it for over fifty years now but the situation just keeps getting worse with each passing year. Premiums continue to increase and benefits continue to diminish as corporate profits continue to dominate as the primary objective. Even the new progressive administration in Washington D.C. proposes yet another convoluted hybrid plan that will do little if anything to relieve our health care system of the $660 Billion dollar annual burden of obscene corporate profits, grotesque CEO salaries and the administrative nightmare caused by the existence of over 1200 competing insurance company systems.
At the very same time, few Americans are aware that there is a bill in Congress RIGHT NOW that will change all that and actually create a single-payer national health insurance system for all in the United States simply by expanding and improving Medicare, one of the best and most efficient medical managements systems in the world. This new improved and expanded Medicare will cover everybody and everything including prescription drugs, dental care, nursing home care and much, much more at prices that we can all afford. There will be no more expensive co-pays or deductibles. Exclusions for pre-existing conditions will be a thing of the past. No American will ever again be forced into bankruptcy because of health care debt. The bill is called House Resolution (H.R.) 676. It's what we've all been waiting for and if we all join hands and get behind it, IT WILL PASS!
It’s great that so many organizations have sprung up over the past several years to support the cause of national health insurance for all but nevertheless it seems clear that in the face of the overwhelming power of the private health insurance industry that there is no moral argument powerful enough to loosen their grip on the system itself or on our political institutions that, for whatever reason choose to continue to support them. Accordingly, a real single-payer health care system can never become a reality in this country until tens of millions of Americans are somehow motivated to participate in this struggle. Meanwhile, even though H.R. 676 was first proposed back in 2003, almost nobody outside of a somewhat esoteric circle of politically minded people is remotely aware that it even exists. Stand on any street corner in any city or town in America and ask the first 100, 500, 1000 or even 10,000 people that walk by what they know about H.R. 676 and you will see what I mean. The silence will be deafening! This MUST change, and soon, if there is to be any hope of achieving the ultimate success!
That’s where we come in. Here at HR676.org, Inc., the Citizens Alliance for National Health Insurance, our sole purpose is to raise the funds necessary to finance an ongoing national media campaign to inform everyone in America that this bill exists and to make them aware of the tremendous benefits that it will bring to our people when it is finally passed. Now for sure, the big national health insurance corporations will do everything they can to prevent the passage of this bill. But we are confident that once the word gets out to the people about H. R. 676, a tidal wave of popular support will rise up that will all but guarantee its passage.
Of course there are many outstanding and excellent organizations working for this cause besides ours and they do a tremendous job in providing organizational efforts and informational resources to many, many thousands. We believe however that the job calls for reaching out to literally millions in a way that only professional media advertising can do and that is what WE are all about. If you agree with this assessment and you are committed to helping make this dream a reality, as are we, then please help or contribute to this effort by supporting HR676.org, Inc. in any way that you can.
