Action Items:
We are asking everyone to do three actions at the party.
Write a letter to your Member of Congress.
Handwritten letters are a very valuable influence tool, and we plan to generate thousands of letters on Sept. 14. Use this sample letter that you can print out for your guests.
Print Sample letter:
You will need pens, paper, envelopes, and stamps. Do you need to know who your member of Congress is? Go to this link to find out. You can print the addresses of your Members of Congress for your guests. Write 3 letters each, one to your Representative and then one for each of your two Senators.
Donate the amount of your co-pay for health care.
Can you donate the amount your insurance company charges you for a doctor's visit to Health Care for America Now? Your co-pay donation to this campaign will make a huge difference in our ability to keep organizing to move Congress to champion a real health care solution. You can donate online here, or mail checks to:
