Dear friend,

With nearly 47 million Americans without any health insurance coverage, the time is now for comprehensive health care reform in our country. Working families deserve quality, affordable health care that is accessible to all.

The America's Affordable Health Choices Act, or H.R. 3200, is a bill in the U.S. House of Representatives that will provide the real reform that is so desperately needed for this nation's health care system, and the bill will save you an average of $2,800 per year (1). The America's Affordable Health Choices Act says that 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% (2).

Members of Congress need to hear from us on this critical issue that affects us all. Please take the time today to send an e-mail to your Representative asking that he/she stand up for health care reform and vote 'YES' on H.R. 3200. We can't wait any longer - the time for quality, affordable health care for everyone is now!

Subject: Please Take a Stand for Health Care Reform

Dear [decision maker name automatically inserted here],

As your constituent, I urge you to take a stand for health care reform and vote 'YES' on H.R. 3200, the America's Affordable Health Choices Act, which would provide the changes that our nation's health care system so desperately needs, such as quality health care that is affordable and accessible to all.

The America's Affordable Health Choices Act would mean an average savings of $2,800 per year for the average person. This bill is our chance for health care coverage that is affordable while also providing good benefits.

The time is now for health care reform - it can no longer wait! Please vote 'YES' on H.R. 3200, the America's Affordable Health Choices Act.

Sincerely,

[Your Name]
