Tell Congress: Protect Consumers and Hold the Big Wall Street Banks Accountable!
Call Senator Jack Reed Toll Free TODAY at 1-866-544-7573.
Tell Senator Reed to support financial reform that holds big Wall Street Banks accountable.
Historic health reform has passed! The bill is a victory for the American people:
- Insurance companies can no longer deny care for pre-existing conditions, charge you more if you’re sick, cap your benefits, sell you junk insurance, or raise rates with impunity.
- For the first time, Members of Congress will get their health insurance from the same system regular Americans do.
- Small business and working families will security and stability knowing they can afford good health insurance that meets their needs.
- 32 million uninsured Americans will get affordable coverage, saving over 30,000 lives per year.

$1,000 per year of the premiums paid to United Healthcare to insure a Rhode Island family of four goes to profits not healthcare!
It's getting tougher every day to get quality, affordable health care, no matter how hard you work.
That's why Ocean State Action and our partners in RI's Health Care Organizing Project joined Health Care for America Now, a nation-wide campaign to organize millions of Americans to demand a guarentee of quality, affordable health care for all.
There is a huge divide between our plan and the insurance companies' plan for healthcare reform. We want to make sure you, and every American, have the quality coverage you need at a price you can afford. Insurers want to leave you alone to fend for yourself in the unregulated, bureaucratic health insurance market.
You can help us! Click here to sign on to Health Care for America Now!
Together we can acheive affordable, quality health care for everyone in Rhode Island and America. Let us know you're coming to the event by clicking here.
