Have you signed the Patients First Petition yet? It’s quickly making it’s way around the web, much like the FreeOurHealthCareNow petition that is extremely popular on this website. Though the FreeOurHealthCareNow petition is directed towards President Obama, the Hands Off My Healthcare petition is aimed at everyone and anyone who supports legislation for health care reform.
Lobbyists, unions, and politicians in Washington are trying to seize control of our health care. Patients like us have been left out. We can’t sit by and let this happen, or else we lose:
- Our choice of doctors
- All control of our health insurance options
- Timely access to quality health care
- Money by paying for a government takeover
“I urge you to oppose any legislation that imposes greater government control over my health care that would mean fewer choices for me and my family and even deny treatments to those in need. Congress must not let government get between my family and my doctor. Please protect patient freedom and expand our health care options with real reforms – focused on patients, not on politics.”
