Health Care Urgency: A matter of Importance.

It's not every day the next president of the United States asks YOU for advice. But that's what's going on right now. President-elect Obama has sent his pick for Secretary of Health and Human Services, Sen. Tom Daschle, on a mission to find out how Americans feel about health care reform. They want your input. Will you take them up on it? Tell the incoming Obama administration why we cannot wait to fix health care -- and we'll share your responses with Sen. Daschle and Obama's transition team. The economic crisis is forcing the incoming administration to put some of Obama's campaign priorities on the backburner. We cannot let this happen to health care reform. Obama's transition team needs to hear from you that fixing health care is a crucial part to addressing millions of Americans' economic hardships. It's personal feedback from people like you that can help turn something like health care reform from a campaign platform to a political reality.

Share your thoughts on health care with the incoming administration -- and make sure health care stays at the top of President-elect Obama's agenda. After you take action, please forward this message along to your friends and family. The more voices we bring to the table, the more likely both parties will work together to get this done.

What are your priorities?
During the presidential campaign, President-elect Obama told us that he would work across the aisle to provide access to quality, affordable health care to every American. Even better, more than two-thirds of Congress promised to do the same.
But a lot will be on their plates after they take office in January – and many are wondering why health care should be among the top priorities.
