An open letter to the U.S. Congress

TAKE ACTION NOW - 23% of U.S. Adults are Underinsured

7 so far! Help us get to 10 signers!

I am your constituents and a new Commonwealth Fund report details how many of us are under insured for healthcare. We have no insurance part of the year or our policies have such high deductibles that we won’t use them. The result is that illnesses progress to become very serious without attention and then the debt mounts and for so many bankruptcy is the result. It is 23% of the population from aged 19 to 64. That is about 45 million of us. I know you want people to be as healthy as possible so I want you to address this horrible gap. You can expand Medicaid, increase ACA subsidies, or ensure everyone has health insurance by creating a public insurance trust. Just get in gear and start protecting the people who elected you.
